Chargers, Ravens May Trade For Dolphins Trade Candidate
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. It isn’t helping Ezukanma’s case after the Dolphins made some moves to improve the passing attack after signing Odell Beckham Jr. to a one-year deal. The former fourth-rounder from the 2022 NFL Draft was hoping to get some development under Mike McDaniel but it hasn’t been faring him well since injuries have been derailing him.
