The New York Giants<\/a> and star defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence have reached an impasse in contract extension negotiations, prompting the team to actively engage with multiple clubs regarding a potential trade, reports NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport.<\/p>\n

Lawrence, a two-time All-Pro and cornerstone of the Giants’ defense, requested a trade earlier this month after talks stalled over a new big-money deal. His current four-year, $90 million extension from 2023 has no remaining guarantees, and he has fallen to around 12th among interior defensive linemen in average annual value following a less productive 2025 season.<\/p>\n

He has also skipped voluntary offseason workouts.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, hours before reports of an impasse<\/a>, Giants general manager Joe Schoen described recent discussions with Lawrence’s representatives as productive and expressed a desire to keep the player<\/a> in New York, while remaining open to trade inquiries with no firm deadlines.<\/p>\n

Analysts suggest the Giants should demand a significant haul<\/a> in any deal, potentially including a first-round pick or better, given Lawrence’s elite talent and the deep 2026 draft class.<\/p>\n

With the 2026 NFL Draft approaching, the situation is expected to reach a resolution soon as the Giants gauge league-wide interest in the standout nose tackle.<\/p>\n
