Over the weekend, the Miami Dolphins made the decision to trade wide receiver DeVante Parker and a fifth-round pick to the New England Patriots for a 2023 third-round pick in return.
When the deal became official on Tuesday, the Dolphins released a statement from general manager Chris Grier that shared his feelings on Parker.
“From the day we drafted DeVante and he became a Miami Dolphin, he has epitomized everything we desire in a player – excellence on the field, a great teammate and a model citizen in the community. We are thankful for everything he has given this organization over the past [seven] seasons and wish him continued success. He will always be an important piece of our franchise history.”
