Regardless, the clock continues to tick toward, well, something

Current Dolphins receiver DeVante Parker won’t be joining former Dolphins receiver Jarvis Landry as a former Dolphins receiver anytime soon.

Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins do not intend to trade the disappointing former first-rounder.

Parker currently is week-to-week with a broken finger Jamon Brown Jersey , with the team “hopeful” Parker will be ready for the start of the regular season.

The Dolphins picked up the fifth-year option on Parker’s rookie deal, even though he has yet to have a breakthrough campaign. In 2017, he caught 57 passes for 670 yards and a touchdown. The prior season, Parker had 56 receptions for 744 yards and four scores.

Parker currently is listed as a starter on the team’s unofficial depth chart, along with Kenny Stills and Danny Amendola.

Salguero’s report explains that the Dolphins could, in theory, change their position if someone were to make the team an offer it can’t refuse, which could mean that the Dolphins are secretly waiting for said offer. Newcomer Albert Wilson Chuck Howley Jersey , who is listed as the backup to Stills and who signed a three-year, $24 million deal, is a versatile weapon who could be dropped into any of the three receiver positions, including the position possibly vacated by Parker.

The Dolphins patiently have been waiting for Parker to live up to the potential that made him a first-round pick. He simply hasn’t. At some point decision will need to be made about his future — especially with a $9.387 million salary on the books for 2019.

That salary commitment for the fifth year of Parker’s contract, guaranteed for injury for now, could be the main thing that would keep a team from taking a chance on a guy who has had plenty of chances to justify his draft position, and who hasn’t, yet.

Last week Brandon Linder Jersey , a sense emerged that the Rams and defensive tackle Aaron Donald were close to getting a long-term deal done. And that may indeed by the case still.

However, the deal still isn’t done, and the team’s first regular-season game is only 19 days away.

Earlier this week, coach Sean McVay downplayed the notion of a deadline for a deal, despite the deadline-driven nature of the business. On Tuesday, McVay acknowledged that, regardless of whether and to what extent a deal is close, McVay and Donald haven’t been talking Leonard Fournette Jersey , like they were earlier in training camp.

“It’s been awhile since I’ve spoken with Aaron,” McVay said.

McVay has been busy, and the fact that they haven’t spoken actually could be a product of the momentum that was building toward getting a deal done. If the situation were close to resolution, after all, McVay wouldn’t need to engage in any extra effort to ensure the right kind of relationship with his best defensive player.

Regardless, the clock continues to tick toward, well, something. Whatever the deadline may be Jalen Ramsey Jersey , the deadline is approaching. And if the gap is ever going to be bridged between franchise and franchise player who is a year from being franchise tagged, the sooner they do it, the sooner the Rams will be in position to reap the benefit of a guy who can wreak havoc on any offense he faces.

Beginning in Week One, when McVay’s team takes on the offense run by his mentor, new/old Raiders coach Jon Gruden.
