The Los Angeles Chargers or Baltimore Ravens may trade for Dolphins trade candidate wide receiver, Erik Ezukanma before this regular season. A Bleacher Report article says the Dolphins can trade one of their wideouts because there’s plenty of competition at the position either with the emergence of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.
