Dallas and Miami swapped cornerbacks in a trade on roster cutdown day, with the Cowboys sending Kelvin Joseph to the Dolphins for 2020 first-round pick Noah Igbinoghene on Tuesday.
Joseph was the 44th overall pick in the second round in 2021. Joseph was an unarmed passenger in a vehicle from which a fatal shot was fired in a drive-by shooting in Dallas in March 2022.
The 22-year-old Joseph was cleared of criminal charges in the case.
A spot on the roster wasn't guaranteed for Joseph, who had 36 tackles and a fumble recovery in 26 games over two seasons.
