The Miami Dolphins' All-Pro linebacker Jordyn Brooks is generating trade interest, with both the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals identified as potential suitors. ESPN's Aaron Schatz noted that Brooks, a first-team All-Pro last season, leads the league in total tackles. With his contract expiring after the 2026 season, the Dolphins might seek to trade him before the offseason concludes. There is speculation that if Brooks remains with Miami, it could be for their attempt to build a competitive team. Regardless, he could be a significant acquisition for a contending team needing a linebacker.
