Dexter Lawrence remains under contract with the Giants, but that may not be the case for much longer. The Pro Bowl defensive tackle has requested a trade, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
Schefter notes Lawrence will not attend New York’s offseason program. Since the Giants are among the teams which made a head coaching change this winter, their program will begin tomorrow. Lawrence will remain absent as an indication of his displeasure over the status of extension talks.
Schefter notes contract negotiations have not yielded progress, and colleague Jordan Raanan confirms Lawrence “has not been happy for quite some time.” As things stand, two years remain on the 28-year-old’s contract. Lawrence is owed $2MM in 2026 and another $22MM the following season. The guaranteed money on his pact has run out, however, creating the need for a fresh round of extension talks.
