Former Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick is heading to the Jets. The Dolphins are trading him to New York in exchange for a seventh-round pick, then Fitzpatrick is expected to sign a three-year, $40 million contract with the Jets.
The Steelers had interest in a reunion with Fitzpatrick if the Dolphins were to cut him. They couldn't trade for him because of the NFL's rule prohibiting teams trading for players they traded away for two years.
