Overview
- Lawrence, who requested a trade Monday, is expected to miss the offseason program and forfeit a $500,000 workout bonus, according to ESPN.
- The Giants have not acted on the request yet, with team evaluators indicating New York is taking its time before deciding whether to renegotiate or deal him.
- He has two years left on his contract and, after a July restructure reported by NFL Network, no guaranteed money remains on the final seasons.
- League reporting suggests New York would seek premium picks, with a late first-rounder or a second-rounder plus more discussed, as contenders such as the 49ers, Packers, Bears, Vikings, Titans, Bills, Jaguars, Patriots, and Panthers are linked as possible fits.
- Teams are weighing his three Pro Bowls against a down 2025 stat line of 31 tackles and 0.5 sacks, and his stance could force a move before the draft or prompt the Giants to restore guarantees to keep a defensive cornerstone under new coach John Harbaugh.
