Dolphins Trade Atwell for Hunter | Miami Dolphins News

The Miami Dolphins just pulled off a savvy trade, sending wide receiver Tutu Atwell to the Rams for running back Jarquez Hunter — a second-year power runner with breakout potential. With key backs Ollie Gordon II and Donovan Edwards sidelined, Miami’s move signals a serious push to bolster RB depth. Hunter, a fourth-round Auburn pick, showed flashes in preseason, including a touchdown run against the Saints, and brings toughness and breakaway ability — if he can add speed. The deal also clears space for fresh starts: Atwell’s pass-catching struggles made him expendable, while Hunter arrives with minimal cap hit. It’s a low-risk, high-reward swap that underscores Miami’s urgency before the season kicks off — and it’s not their first rodeo with the Rams, who’ve traded with them before, including that Jalen Ramsey deal.
