MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) – The Miami Dolphins have traded defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a 2020 first round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Fitzpatrick had requested and received permission to seek a deal a week ago.
The Fins’ 2018 first-round pick had been displeased with the way he was being used by head coach Brian Flores’ staff.
In the wake of last week’s season-opening 59-10 loss to Baltimore, there have been rumblings other players are also unhappy with the coaches and the organization’s emphasis on the 2020 draft over this year’s roster.
