Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard wants a new contract from the team, but now that he feels that is not happening, he has asked the team to trade him. As a part of his public statement confirm the trade request, Howard wrote, “I’m one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL, and the tape backs that claim. The assignments I’m given, shadowing the opposition’s best player with list help, proves my value, my worth. Yet, I’m the second highest paid cornerback on my own team, and it’s not even close.”
The highest paid cornerback on the Dolphins is Byron Jones.
