Dolphins Made Calls To Trade RB Kenyan Drake This Week?

Update:

A club source tells Armando Salguero that the Dolphins have had “zero conversations” with any team about a potential trade for RB Kenyan Drake, who had a great week of practice. 

Salguero adds that Drake has not requested to be traded. 

Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reported Sunday that the Dolphins have called around this week and attempted to trade starting RB Kenyan Drake this week.

The Dolphins have given former first-round DB Minkah Fitzpatrick permission to seek a trade out of Miami, so it’s clear that Miami is open for business right now, as they continue to collect assets to build around in the coming years.

Drake, 25, is a former third-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2016. He’s currently in the final year of his four-year, $3.5 million contract and stands to make a base salary of $810,000 for the 2019 season.

Drake is in line to be an unrestricted free agent in 2020.

In 2019, Drake has appeared in one game for the Dolphins and rushed for 12 yards on four carries (3 YPC) to go along with two receptions for 15 yards receiving and no touchdowns.

We’ll have more regarding the Dolphins and Drake as the news is available.
