"Fitzpatrick, 29, was drafted 11th overall by the Dolphins back in 2018. He was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2019 and returned to Miami in another trade last June. Fitzpatrick has made the Pro Bowl five times and First Team All-Pro three times in his career."
"The Miami Dolphins reportedly will send safety Minkah Fitzpatrick to the New York Jets in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft pick. The Jets will sign Fitzpatrick to a three-year, $40 million deal once the trade is completed."
"This trade reunites Fitzpatrick with new Jets defensive coordinator Brian Duker, who served as the Dolphins' secondary coach and pass game coordinator last season. The Jets were the only team in NFL history without an interception, so the hope is that the NFL's co-interceptions leader from 2022 can turn things around."
The Miami Dolphins traded safety Minkah Fitzpatrick to the New York Jets in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft pick. The Jets signed Fitzpatrick to a three-year, $40 million deal following the trade. Fitzpatrick, 29, was originally drafted by Miami in 2018, traded to Pittsburgh in 2019, and returned to Miami last June. He has earned five Pro Bowl selections and three First Team All-Pro honors. Last season, he recorded 82 tackles, one sack, and one interception in 14 games. The trade reunites Fitzpatrick with Jets defensive coordinator Brian Duker, who previously worked with him in Miami's secondary. The Jets, who had no interceptions last season, aim to improve their pass defense with Fitzpatrick's addition.
