It had been known that Ramsey was looking to be traded.
NFL.com reported in April that Ramsey and the team mutually would explore potential trading opportunities before the start of the 2025 season. A reunion with Los Angeles Rams at one point was rumored to be a possible opportunity for Ramsey.
He won a Super Bowl there in 2021.
However, Steelers seemed to have been in the market for ways to strengthen the defense. In addition, the team not only receives the three-time all-pro, but they also get a Pro Bowl-Tight End in Smith to add the offensive depth and give Aaron Rodgers another goal.

Ramsey had 60 tackles and two interceptions in 17 games last season. Smith had a career high 88 catches in 884 yards and eight touchdowns.
The dolphins received Fitzpatrick, who started his career in Miami. The natives in New Jersey were traded for Steelers in the mid -2019 season when that year got away from the dolphins.
