Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier constantly searches for ways to improve the roster. With River Cracraft and Erik Ezukanma sidelined with injuries, the Dolphins traded a 2025 sixth-round draft pick for wide receiver Chase Claypool and a 2025 seventh-round pick.

Claypool, a second-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2020, has one year left on his rookie deal. The trade came after voicing displeasure for seeing limited action with the Chicago Bears. With just four receptions on 14 targets, Miami is a fresh start for Claypool as he aims for a long-term contract this offseason.
