BREAKING: Giants trade for DT Leonard Williams

Multiple sources are reporting that the New York Giants have traded with the New York Jets for defensive tackle Leonard Williams.

In exchange for Williams, the Giants are reportedly sending a 2020 third round pick and a 2021 fifth round pick to their cross-stadium rivals. This is the first time the Giants and Jets have ever executed a trade.

Williams is playing on his fifth-year option, so this is an 8-game tryout to see if the Giants want to sign him in free agency, as well as giving them the option to negotiate before Williams hits free agency.
