In what has been a hectic day of roster shuffling across the NFL, the Dolphins and Colts have struck a deal.
Per Adam Schefter, the Colts are sending offensive lineman Evan Boehm to Miami in exchange for a conditional pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Boehm played in 11 games (four starts) for the Colts in 2018, his first season with the team. The former Missouri Tiger was drafted in the fourth round by the Arizona Cardinals back in 2016.
He spent two seasons in Glendale, Arizona, making 31 appearances (nine starts).

The Colts sent the Dolphins what is being described as an undisclosed pick in the trade as well.
With many of Miami's players' unsure of their future with the team, the next few days could be pivotal for the Dolphins. Adding an experienced offensive lineman for next to nothing is a great minor transaction for the team ahead of the season.
It'll be interesting to see if he can sniff game action with the Dolphins. If he does, he'll be tasked with protecting Ryan Fitzpatrick, who was named the team's Week 1 starter.
