Nine takedowns in loss
Ramsey registered nine total tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 31-28 loss to Chicago.
Analysis: Ramsey was able to compile a season-high nine stops, leading the team in the Week 12 loss. The 31-year-old has fully transitioned to safety with the Steelers, and he has now recorded 56 total tackles (32 solo), including 2.0 sacks, while also adding six passes defensed, one of which is an interception, over 11 contests this year.

Posts four stops before ejection
Ramsey logged four tackles (two solo) and one pass defense during the Steelers' 34-12 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: Ramsey's streak of playing every single game was snapped at four games Sunday. That was because he was ejected early in the fourth quarter after punching Ja'Marr Chase, though that altercation stemmed from Chase spitting on Ramsey, which led to the NFL suspending the Bengals' wide receiver for one game, per ESPN. Ramsey is up to 47 tackles (29 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and six pass defenses (one interception) through 10 regular-season games.

Logs eight tackles Week 10
Ramsey recorded eight tackles (four solo) during the Steelers' 25-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Analysis: Ramsey posted a season-high eight stops during Sunday's loss, which was second most on the Steelers behind Patrick Queen (12). It was Ramsey's second game at safety, and the 10th-year pro is up to 43 tackles (27 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and five pass defenses (one interception) through nine regular-season games.

Shifting to safety
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Saturday that the Steelers have moved Ramsey exclusively to safety ahead of their Week 9 tilt with the Colts, Alex Kozora of SteelersDepot.com reports.
Analysis: The Steelers are thin at safety with DeShon Elliott (knee) on injured reserve and Jabrill Peppers (quadriceps) and Chuck Clark (illness) both sidelined for Week 9, so Ramsey -- who had been primarily serving as a slot corner -- will adapt to a new position. Ramsey had previously gotten some exposure to safety during training camp and during the season, so the transition shouldn't prove to be too difficult. Brandin Echols is now in line to serve as the Steelers' top slot corner, while Darius…read more

Solid outing in loss
Ramsey logged four tackles (three solo) during Pittsburgh's loss to Green Bay on Sunday.
Analysis: Ramsey played every defensive snap for the Steelers during the loss. The 2016 first-round pick has now racked up at least four tackles in five of his seven outings this season. He will look to keep producing in the team's Week 9 matchup versus the Colts.

Pushed around by Chase
Ramsey recorded six tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in Thursday's 33-31 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: This was one of Ramsey's better stat lines of the season, matching his season high of six tackles. However, it was far from his best performance, as he was one of the primary players responsible for covering Ja'Marr Chase, who incredibly recorded 16 receptions. While it wasn't Ramsey's finest performance, he remains a key part of the Steelers' secondary and should continue to produce diverse stats for IDP purposes.

Notches 2.0 sacks in Week 6 win
Ramsey tallied six tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's 23-9 win against the Browns.
Analysis: Ramsey dealt with a hamstring injury throughout the week, but he was able to suit up and logged 77 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps. The veteran cornerback unexpectedly got to Browns rookie QB Dillon Gabriel in the backfield twice for his first two sacks of the season. In fact, the 2.0 sacks tied his career-best mark for an entire season. Ramsey was deemed a non-participant in practice both Monday and Tuesday this week, but the reason was cited as 'rest,' so he should be good to suit up…read more

On track to face Browns
The Steelers have upgraded Ramsey (hamstring) from questionable and he is expected to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against Cleveland, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ramsey upgraded to a full practice Friday after having opened Week 6 with back-to-back missed sessions, and Pittsburgh has now upgraded his status Saturday. The reliable veteran appears on track to handle his usual starting role at slot corner versus the Browns and rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel.

Questionable for Sunday
Ramsey (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
Analysis: After logging consecutive DNPs to open the Steelers' week of practice, Ramsey upgraded to a full session Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup. The veteran corner has appeared in all four of Pittsburgh's games thus far, recording 14 total tackles and four passes defended, including one interception. However, if he's sidelined for the first time in Week 6, expect Brandin Echols to step in and start at slot corner.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Ramsey (hamstring) will be limited in practice this week, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ramsey must have picked up the injury in the Steelers' Week 4 win over the Vikings in Dublin, as he played just 72 percent of the defensive snaps against Minnesota. The Week 5 bye came at a good time for Ramsey, who has 14 tackles (eight solo) and four pass breakups, including one interception, across four appearances this season.

Picks off Darnold in loss
Ramsey recorded six tackles (four solo) and two pass breakups, including one interception, in the Steelers' loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Ramsey played all 65 defensive snaps against Seattle, and his first-quarter interception of Sam Darnold on a pass intended for Cooper Kupp marked Ramsey's first interception as a member of the Steelers. Aside from the interception, Ramsey was picked apart by Darnold and the Seattle wide receivers in Week 2, as Ramsey was in coverage on Tory Horton's 21-yard touchdown in the first quarter.

Traded to Pittsburgh
The Dolphins are trading Ramsey to the Steelers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Ramsey and tight end Jonnu Smith are headed to Pittsburgh in exchange for safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, with Day 3 picks going in both directions. The 2-for-1 trade allows Miami to shed salary without totally punting, while Pittsburgh now has standout strengths at cornerback and tight end. Ramsey may end up in an IDP-friendly role as a slot guardian and/or safety, considering the Steelers seemingly have a solid pair of boundary corners in Joey Porter and Darius Slay. They also have slot corner…read more

Trade expected before training camp
The Dolphins are expected to finalize a trade dealing Ramsey before training camp, and the cornerback's preferred destination would be a West Coast team such as the Rams or Chargers, Dante Collinelli of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Ramsey and Miami appear united in a mutual desire to part ways, and it's unsurprising that interested teams would want the veteran cornerback present for the start of training camp. Both teams in Los Angeles would benefit from adding a proven starting boundary corner such as Ramsey, though Rams coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that "there would be some obstacles that are real that are in the place of maybe preventing that from occurring," though he said the team is "always open-minded to…read more

Not expected to attend minicamp
Ramsey is not planning to attend the Dolphins' mandatory minicamp during the coming week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: It was reported in mid-April that Ramsey and the Dolphins were mutually interested in parting ways via a trade, and that sentiment doesn't seem to have changed on either side. Though a deal hasn't come to fruition yet, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post suggested in late May that the Rams, Cowboys and Commanders could be possible suitors. Per Rapoport, Ramsey intends to stay away from the Dolphins until the situation is resolved.

Time in Miami nearing end
Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that after numerous conversations with Ramsey "we decided it was probably in the best interest for all parties to move forward [separately]", Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Miami has already paid out $4 million of the fully guaranteed $25.1 million that Ramsey is due in 2025 as a roster bonus, while $18.98 million of the remaining amount comes as a bonus due in Week 1 which can be spread across future seasons, making his contract relatively trade-friendly. Ramsey played all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2024 and remained a high-end starter, though failed to earn a Pro Bowl nod for the first time since his rookie year.

Trade might be coming
Ramsey and the Dolphins are exploring options for a trade, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Ramsey signed a three-year extension in September, but the length was mostly a vehicle for short-term cap savings -- there's no guaranteed money beyond 2025. He does have a full guarantee for his $25.1 million in compensation this year, including a $4 million roster bonus the Dolphins already paid. Most of the money ($18.98 million) comes from an option bonus that's due Week 1 and spreads the cap burden to future seasons, making the 30-year-old cornerback a viable trade target for teams without…read more

Plays all 17 games in 2024
Ramsey racked up 60 tackles (39 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 17 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2024. He also had 11 passes defensed, including two interceptions.
Analysis: Ramsey was one of the few stalwart members of Miami's defense during the 2024 campaign, in which he suited up for all of the Dolphins' regular-season games despite entering the year with a hamstring injury. The 30-year-old cornerback remains under contract through 2028, though Miami has a potential 'out' in his contract after the 2025 campaign.

Logs full practice Thursday
Ramsey (knee) was listed as a full practice participant on Thursday's injury report, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Ramsey was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a knee issue, but he was able to go through team drills Thursday without any limitations. Unless he suffers a setback, Ramsey should be good to go for Sunday's AFC East clash against the Patriots. Ramsey has played every single defensive snap in the five regular-season games since the Dolphins' Week 6 bye, and over that span he has registered 20 tackles (15 solo) and four pass defenses (including two interceptions).

Dealing with knee injury
Ramsey (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Ramsey played 100 percent of the Dolphins' defensive snaps and recorded five total tackles and two passes defended, including one interception, in Sunday's win over the Raiders. However, it now appears that he picked up a knee injury in the process. Ramsey's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in the Week 12 divisional matchup against the Patriots.

Ramsey finished Sunday's 34-19 win over Las Vegas with five solo tackles and two pass defenses (including one interception).
Analysis: Ramsey picked off Gardner Minshew late in the fourth quarter on a pass intended for Jakobi Meyers, which led to a 46-yard field goal from Jason Sanders four plays later. Ramsey has now logged two interceptions over his last three games, and for the year he's up to 40 tackles (26 solo) and six pass defenses (including two interceptions) across 10 regular-season games.

Nabs first pick of season
Ramsey recorded one tackle (one solo) and an interception during Sunday's 30-27 loss at Buffalo.
Analysis: Josh Allen wisely avoided targeting Ramsey for most of Sunday's contest, but he was still able to make a mark in Week 9 early in the second quarter by corralling a red-zone pass after it bounced off the fingertips of Keon Coleman. His assignment in Week 10 will be to try to slow down Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua in Los Angeles.

Ready for Thursday
Ramsey (hamstring) was left off the Dolphins' injury report Wednesday ahead of Thursday night's matchup with the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ramsey has been nursing a hamstring injury over the past week, but it appears he's healthy enough to suit up for Thursday night's divisional matchup. The All-Pro corner helped lead Miami's defense in holding the Jaguars to just 139 passing yards in Week 1, the ninth-best mark in the NFL. Expect Ramsey to line up opposite Kendall Fuller and create problems for Buffalo's wide receivers in Week 2.

Starts week limited
Ramsey (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant in Monday's practice estimate, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ramsey continues to deal with the injury, which has limited him for multiple weeks. However, it's worth noting he was able to play through it in Sunday's win over the Jaguars, and despite an expected limited snap count, Ramsey still logged 38 plays on defense. With just three days to prepare for Thursday's game against the Bills, it's likely the veteran corner will remain limited throughout the week but ultimately suit up for the game.

The veteran has been sidelined due to a hamstring injury since Aug. 12, and he could be in danger of missing Sunday's regular-season opener against the Jaguars, but Miami's decision to extend Ramsey at this time is a clear indication that the team isn't worried about his long-term availability.

Has chance to play Sunday
Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver said Thursday that he was "hopeful" Ramsey (calf) would be able to play Week 1 against the Jaguars, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Ramsey's injury wasn't supposed to be considered serious, but he's been sidelined since Aug. 12 and has not yet practiced this week. Weaver also acknowledged the fact Miami hosts the Bills next Thursday as factoring into the equation, stating, "we have to be cognizant we have two games in five days." Ramsey's status for Jacksonville on Sunday may come down to the wire, and even if he does suit up, the veteran cornerback may see a limited snap count.

Makes seventh career Pro Bowl
Ramsey recorded 22 tackles (18 solo) and five pass breakups, including three interceptions, across 10 regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2023.
Analysis: Ramsey missed the first seven games of the campaign due to a knee injury suffered in training camp, and while further knee issues limited his snap count on a handful of occasions, he didn't miss another contest. With Ramsey on the field, Miami's secondary was markedly improved, and there's no doubt that the 29-year-old remains a pillar of the team's plans going forward, especially with Xavien Howard's play having declined recently.

Analysis: The All-Pro cornerback has now posted three interceptions through three games, which is two more than any other Dolphin on the year. Miami's defense has been substantially better when Ramsey is on the field, allowing just over 205 passing yards per game when he plays compared to 256 yards per game when he doesn't.

Heading to IR
The Dolphins are slated to place Ramsey (knee) on injured reserve, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Ramsey is recovering from late-July surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, so his placement on IR doesn't come as a surprise. The hope is that Ramsey could make a return in late December, so though placement on IR only requires four games to be missed, the star cornerback will likely be out most of the regular season. With Nik Needham (Achilles) also starting on the PUP list, Miami will need rookie second-round pick Cam Smith to step up quickly alongside Xavien Howard.

Other players have missed entire seasons after summer meniscus repairs -- including then-Vikings TE Irv Smith in 2021 -- but there's at least some chance for a same-season return in this case, given that Ramsey suffered the injury at the very start of training camp and is on a team with a realistic chance at a deep postseason run.

Pelissero adds that the length of Ramsey's looming recovery will hinge on what level of surgical repair doctors determine is needed. Either way, it appears as though Ramsey's Week 1 status is unclear.

Limited to start OTAs
Ramsey (shoulder) went through drills Tuesday at OTAs, but he didn't participate in the 7-on-7 portion of the session, Yianni Kourakis of WPBF25 News reports.
Analysis: Ramsey hasn't missed a game over the past two seasons despite dealing with AC joint sprains in both of his shoulders. He's undergone surgeries in consecutive offseasons to correct the injuries and is expected to be 100 percent healthy for the start of the 2023 campaign, but after trading for the 2016 first-round pick this offseason, the Dolphins will presumably be cautious with their new star cornerback.

Headed to Miami
The Rams agreed to trade Ramsey (shoulder) to the Dolphins in exchange for a 2023 third-round pick and Hunter Long on Sunday, but the deal won't be processed until Wednesday, when the new league year begins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Ramsey hasn't missed a game over the past two seasons despite AC joint sprains in both of his shoulders. He had surgery on the left shoulder last offseason and underwent a procedure on the right one this offseason, but he's expected to be 100 percent healthy for the 2023 campaign. With the trade, Ramsey will have his 2023 and 2024 salaries fully guaranteed, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, and will be set to make around $20 million each season.

Analysis: Ramsey played through AC joint sprains in both of his shoulders during the Rams' run to the Super Bowl in 2021.

Snags two picks in season finale
Ramsey recorded five solo tackles, two interceptions and three pass defenses during Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Ramsey was able to effectively blanket DK Metcalf, and both of the veteran cornerback's interceptions did indeed come on targets to the star wideout. Ramsey didn't wait long to notch the first pick, as he was able to get in front of Geno Smith's first pass and return the ball all the way back to the Seahawks' 11-yard line, setting up a Matt Gay field goal a few plays later. Ramsey's fourth year with the Rams saw him log career highs in tackles (88) and forced fumbles (three), and he also tied a…read more

Records second pick of season
Ramsey recorded five tackles (four solo), an interception and three pass defenses during Sunday's 51-14 victory against the Broncos.
Analysis: Ramsey smothered the Broncos with shutdown coverage and punctuated his standout performance by picking off Russell Wilson in the third quarter on a lob pass in the end zone intended for Greg Dulcich. Ramsey stepped in front of the pass and snagged his second interception of the season, and the Rams defense as a whole came together and shut down a crumbling Broncos offense. Justin Herbert and the Chargers are up next on the docket in Week 17, a far more challenging task for the star cornerback.

The All-Pro cornerback has now recorded at least six tackles over each of the last four weeks, including a season-high nine stops against Tampa Bay in Week 9. Ramsey has 50 tackles (39 solo), two sacks, nine passes defended and an interception over 10 games, and, barring injury, he should set a new career high in stops this season.

Analysis: One week removed from earning his first career sack against Cooper Rush, Ramsey was able to get the jump on P.J. Walker on a blitz in the fourth quarter for his second sack in as many weeks.

Eight tackles Sunday
Ramsey recorded eight tackles (seven solo) and two pass defenses during Sunday's 20-12 win against the Cardinals.
Analysis: For the third straight game to start the season, Ramsey was on the field for every snap on defense, and he was a disruptive force. The star cornerback broke up a pair of passes, notched a tackle for a loss and was a constant presence on coverage, which played a large role in the Cardinals failing to score a single touchdown. On tap for Week 4 is a matchup against a depleted San Francisco offense, which should give Ramsey plenty of opportunities to shine.

A much easier task is at hand for Week 2, as the Falcons come to town with plenty of opportunities for the Rams and Ramsey to get back on track against an underwhelming offense.

Ready to roll for Week 1
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Friday that Ramsey (shoulder) is "ready to roll" for the season opener against Buffalo on Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ramsey underwent shoulder surgery in June, and while he avoided a stint on the PUP list, he didn't suit up for any of the team's preseason games. The All-Pro cornerback played through the shoulder issue during Los Angeles' Super Bowl run but said at the beginning of August that it feels significantly better than it did last season. The Rams opted to bring him along slowly, but with only a week left before the season opener, he appears to be 100 percent.

Ramsey's surgically repaired shoulder is "nowhere near 100 percent" but feels significantly better than it did last season, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today Rams Wire reports.

The superstar cornerback played through AC joint injuries in both shoulders during the Rams' Super Bowl run, but he eventually underwent surgery to repair one of them at the end of June.

Value on the rise
Ramsey recorded six tackles (four solo), an interception and a pass defensed during Sunday's 28-19 win over Detroit.
Analysis: While Ramsey's name and real-world value typically trump his fantasy results, it's been a solid campaign all around for the seven-year veteran. He's up to 41 tackles, two interceptions and six passes defensed already, and those numbers should be enough to warrant a roster spot in most IDP settings.

Analysis: First-year defensive coordinator Brandon Staley and Ramsey have been talking multiple times a day, and Staley is bullish about Ramsey's command of all the positions in the defensive backfield.
