The aftershocks from Monday mornings’ blockbuster trade between Miami Dolphins and the Pittsburgh Steelers may affect the Las Vegas Raiders beyond them not ending up with cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who was part of the deal.
The Dolphins also sent tight end Jonnu Smith to the Raiders in the trade. Shortly after the deal was made, NFL Media reported Miami is now calling around the league looking for a tight end. A Miami beat writer then reported that the Dolphins have been focusing on Las Vegas third-year tight end Michael Mayer.
So, the combination of those two reports makes it highly likely that the Dolphins will reach out to Las Vegas about Mayer’s availability.
