Lamar Jackson may push for a trade to the Miami Dolphins if he insists he will only play there. Currently under contract with the Baltimore Ravens, Jackson has a no-trade clause with one year remaining. Reports suggest that while Jackson's health and play style may raise concerns, he would be a significant addition to the Dolphins if salary and compensation align. Analyst Michael Irvin and Nick Wright have endorsed the potential match. The Dolphins may consider waiting for Jackson to become a free agent in 2027, depending on their ongoing roster-building strategy.
