Landry has long been rumored to be on the way out and the Dolphins came close to trading him at the trade deadline. Once the season was over rumors began to swirl that the two sides could not come up with a suitable contract.
It was initially reported shortly after season’s end that Landry and the Dolphins were only a million or so apart but that was quickly proven false. In fact Landry was asking for quite a bit more. Landry is believed to be seeking a deal in the $15 million per year range while the Dolphins were only offering around $13 million per season.
