The Miami Dolphins are not expected to make a big trade to bring a player into their locker room, but a recent contract restructuring has written the script for something much bigger than a simple cap space grab.
Jordyn Brooks is one of the better defensive players on the roster, and he continues to show leadership traits the Dolphins desperately need. On Thursday, Miami restructured Brooks' contract to add a mere $3 million in cap space.
The move doesn't move the needle toward adding a player via trade, but it opens a window to send one out.
