CONFIRMED: Jalen Ramsey Signs Lifetime Deal With Miami Dolphins To Become The First NFL Player In History
In a groundbreaking move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL, Jalen Ramsey has officially signed a lifetime contract with the Miami Dolphins — becoming the first player in league history to do so. The star cornerback, known for his elite coverage skills and fierce competitiveness, has cemented his legacy not only as one of the best defensive backs of his generation but now also as a trailblazer in professional sports contracts.
The deal, announced by the Dolphins organization on Tuesday morning, ensures Ramsey will remain in Miami for the entirety of his NFL career. While financial terms have yet to be disclosed, insiders suggest this is a record-setting agreement that includes both guaranteed money and performance incentives. More significantly, the lifetime clause indicates a long-term commitment that transcends traditional contract structures, opening the door to future front-office or ambassadorial roles once his playing days conclude.
“This is more than just a contract — it’s a commitment to greatness,” Ramsey said during the press conference. “I’m proud to call Miami home for life.”
The NFL has never before seen a “lifetime deal” of this magnitude, and it could set a precedent for how teams value franchise-defining players. For Miami, it’s a bold move — but one that signals their trust in Ramsey’s ability to help lead the franchise to glory for years to come.
