He signed a five-year, $105 million extension before the start of the 2020 season, before he was traded to the Dolphins, later signing a three-year, $72.3 million deal with the team in 2024.

Ramsey was traded to Pittsburgh ahead of the 2025 season in a deal that included TE Jonnu Smith and S Minkah Fitzpatrick. 

In 2025, Ramsey appeared in and started all 17 games for the Steelers and recorded 88 tackles, one interception, three sack, and defended eight passes.
