The New York Giants have engaged with teams about a potential Dexter Lawrence trade after contract talks between the two sides reached an impasse, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The situation surrounding the three-time Pro Bowler should have a conclusion by next week's NFL draft, Rapoport adds.
Lawrence requested a trade earlier in April, but the Giants have publicly expressed optimism that they can find a way to retain him. Head coach John Harbaugh said last week that he believed Lawrence wanted to stay with the team, but understood there was business involved. General manager Joe Schoen expressed a similar sentiment Tuesday.
"I'll echo what coach said last week," Schoen said, per Rapoport. "We'd like for Dexter to be here, and at some point, we'll come to a resolution here, whatever that may be. We'll see."
Despite coming off three consecutive Pro Bowl campaigns, the 28-year-old defensive tackle posted a career-low 0.5 sacks in 2025. Lawrence has two years left on his contract.
