The New York Giants, led by General Manager Joe Schoen, are facing a contract stalemate with defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence. Despite having had 'good conversations', the two sides have not reached an agreement, leading to ongoing trade discussions with other teams. With the NFL draft just nine days away, the situation is expected to escalate. Lawrence, who is currently set to earn $20 million in 2026, is looking for a raise, especially after the Philadelphia Eagles signed defensive tackle Jordan Davis to a contract that raised the average annual value for his position to $26 million. Lawrence is signed through 2027, but any potential trade will require the acquiring team to negotiate a new contract with him, as they would inherit the current impasse.
