Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jarvis Landry, a two-time Pro Bowl selection, said Tuesday he appreciated coach Adam Gase telling him the report about the Dolphins listening to trade offers for him was “false.” Landry, who is entering the final year of his contract, also said he’s sticking to his original plan, that once the regular season begins he won’t entertain contract extension talks from the team.

And Landry said he doesn’t think quarterback Jay Cutler prefers throwing deep to wide receiver DeVante Parker over routes to other receivers.

“No,” Landry said in response to whether he thinks Cutler favors Parker. “Honestly, for us that’s what DeVante is here to do, that’s what Kenny Stills is here to do and that’s what any guy put in a position with the matchup [advantage] is here to do, is to make plays regardless if it’s down the field, underneath, a screen. ...

“We all find our roles and we all buy into it, and that’s what’s going to make this team better. It’s not about the targets and who gets them, and where they get them. It’s about making the plays when they come to you.”

Michael Lombardi, the former NFL executive who writes for The Ringer, an online sports publication, reported over the weekend that the Dolphins listened to trade offers for Landry during the offseason. Lombardi, even as late as Monday evening, never backed off that account.

Earlier Monday, Gase said he talked with Landry about the report and told Landry there was “no chance” he would be traded. Landry said he was aware of the trade report.

“It came across and a few people sent it to me,” he said, “but coach Gase did an amazing job. He called me in and he just talked to me, explained to me the situation and everything that’s going on and that that’s false, and that’s all I really needed to hear from him.”

Landry said he isn’t sure whether the Dolphins ever floated his name in trade talks, and he said it’s irrelevant.

Omar Kelly and Dave Hyde disagree on whether Jarvis Landry is a No. 1 receiver. Omar Kelly and Dave Hyde disagree on whether Jarvis Landry is a No. 1 receiver.

“If they did, I don’t know about it and that’s not something that I can control,” he said. “All I can control is what I do out here on the field and I’ll leave the rest up to that.”

Landry, whose 288 receptions since 2014 are tied with his friend, Odell Beckham, Jr. for most in the NFL during that span, said he doesn’t think he’s making a mistake by not pushing for a contract extension.

“This is the game I love,” he said. “Obviously that’s something that comes with it, but at the same time I’m not going to rush God’s timing, and whenever it happens it happens for me, and that’s what I believe and that’s what I have faith in and that’s what I have trust in and I’ll leave it in God’s hands.”
