Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker is generating trade interest from a host of teams, including the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.

The Dolphins have stocked up at wide receiver this offseason, potentially making Parker expendable. Miami acquired Tyreek Hill from the Kansas City Chiefs and signed Cedrick Wilson in free agency, bolstering a passing offense that already featured Jaylen Waddle and tight end Mike Gesicki in prominent roles.

Parker has battled injuries since his 1,202-yard, nine-touchdown breakout campaign in 2019. The 6-foot-3 target had 515 yards and two touchdowns over 10 outings in 2021 and has averaged 675 yards per season across seven years with the Dolphins.

Parker is signed through 2023. The 29-year-old is due $5.65 million in base salary in 2022 and has no guaranteed money left on his contract.

The Eagles added Zach Pascal in free agency but still lack a marquee weapon outside of DeVonta Smith, who had 916 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie. They were reportedly on the verge of acquiring Calvin Ridley before the NFL suspended the Atlanta Falcons star for gambling.
