Report: Giants, Dexter Lawrence talks have "broken off"
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Talks between the New York Giants and defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence have reached an impasse and have officially broken off, according to multiple reports.
- For a trade to occur, a new team must present the Giants with an acceptable offer and simultaneously offer Lawrence a contract he is willing to accept.
- Ideally, the Giants want to complete a trade when the highest 2026 draft pick they receive is on the clock, allowing them to select their preferred player without interference.
- Currently, the Giants are managing trade negotiations, but they may eventually allow Lawrence to engage directly, which could facilitate reaching a mutually satisfactory deal.
- Discretion is crucial for the Giants to secure the best possible draft pick, and while talks could potentially resume, it would require one party to change their stance from when negotiations stalled.
