Dolphins WR DeVante Parker's Cryptic Instagram Story Has Fans Thinking He's Going to Be Traded
By Thomas Carannante
DeVante Parker returned to practice this week and his chances of making the Miami Dolphins' roster after a few disappointing seasons with the team increased especially given the trade rumors surrounding Kenny Stills.
Parker missed the team's first three preseason games with an undisclosed injury, which raised some eyebrows, but now his recent social media activity has fans thinking something big is about to happen.

Is he peacing out of Miami? What's going on?
It's certainly possible he's been notified of being traded considering the Dolphins have reportedly expressed interest in acquiring star pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney from the Houston Texans, who have a dire need for wide receivers.
A 1-year tag plus a “wink wink” extension agreement w/ Jadeveon Clowney makes sense for a #Dolphins team already in “2020 mode”. Miami may be interested in offering up WRs Devante Parker, Kenny Stills, or even RB Kenyan Drake, who’s entering the final year of his rookie deal.

Parker, given his career-high in receiving yards is just 744, would obviously be a small piece of the deal, though he does still have two years left on his deal after signing an extension in the offseason.
Whatever the case, keep your eyes peeled for something surrounding the former first-round pick. Something seems to be afoot and we can never overlook a cryptic Instagram story, right?
