The New York Giants grabbed all the NFL headlines yesterday when they handed out a massive extension to one of their best young players. No, it wasn't running back Saquon Barkley. Instead, the Giants agreed to a deal with star defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence
The Giants were only able to pick Lawrence in the 2019 NFL draft because of the Odell Beckham Jr. trade. Check out the details below.
If New York never moved on from the rookie of the year, they wouldn't have their cornerstone DL player now. Lawrence has shown improvement in every single so far during his time in the NFL. He has proven his value to a Giants defense that looks to take another step in 2023.
His deal comes shortly after the Tennessee Titans signed star DL Jeffery Simmons to a massive extension. It's a smart move for New York. Their defensive line looks to be one of the strongest units in the NFC this season and beyond now.
