Despite trade rumors swirling around two of Miami’s best players, Dolphins<\/a> wide receiver Jaylen Waddle sounded unfazed by all of it on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“Pretty regular, everybody that\u2019s here is working,” Waddle said of the vibe in Miami Gardens during OTAs. “We do know that it\u2019s a business and people be having different business things going on. We\u2019ve been solid, keeping the main thing, the main thing, and just working, man.”<\/p>\n

Along with seven-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jalen Ramsey, tight end Jonnu Smith has been linked to trade talks<\/a> with the Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As star receiver Tyreek Hill is still recovering from a surgical repair to his wrist, that injury recovery and Smith’s potential trade situation has removed two key offensive weapons during OTAs. Waddle discussed how he approaches practices minus that duo.<\/p>\n

“I approach it as any other day. I don\u2019t think it really matters so much of who\u2019s on the field, who\u2019s not on the field. Just go out there and work man. Approach it, I\u2019m trying to get better each and every day, trying to make the other side better each and every day. It\u2019s not really a different approach. I think our just overall offensive approach this offseason has been pretty good,” Waddle said.<\/p>\n

Waddle is coming off a 2024 season where he finished with career-lows in catches (58), yards (744) and touchdowns (2).<\/p>\n

The 2021 first-round NFL draft pick out of Alabama signed a three-year, $84.75 million contract extension ahead of last season. But, given how last season played out for both the Dolphins<\/a> as a team and for Waddle individually, it’s not surprising to see him locked in regardless of what contract and trade situations might be unfolding around him.<\/p>\n
