Hayes was traded to the Dolphins in exchange for a sixth-round pick on Thursday, ESPN's Alden Gonzalez reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Rams are also sending their seventh round pick to Miami to secure the 206th selection in the upcoming draft. Hayes, 31, is entering the second year of a three-year, $17.5 million contract. He'll add depth at defensive end for the Dolphins, but the team's edge depth will likely result in a reduction in snaps for Hayes in 2017.
