The Miami Dolphins made a surprise move on Monday by dealing both Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith to the Pittsburgh Steelers, reuniting with All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick in the process. The AFC East squad got even more unconventional a day later, luring former Pro Bowl tight end Darren Waller out of retirement.

The Dolphins executed a trade with the New York Giants to bring Darren Waller out of retirement and to South Beach on a one-year deal that's reportedly worth up to $5 million. Miami sent a 2026 sixth-round pick to New York in exchange for Waller and a conditional 2027 seventh-round pick.

Attempting a comeback after suddenly retiring last offseason, former Giants tight end Darren Waller received enough interest to generate a trade with the Miami Dolphins. The Giants gave up Waller and a 2027 seventh-round pick in exchange for a 2026 conditional sixth-round pick.
