If trading cornerback Eli Apple to the New Orleans Saints is the first move of a "tear down" ahead of an offseason rebuild, the Giants have no current plans to move on from another defensive player starter.
An individual with knowledge of the teams plans told NJ Advance Media on the condition of anonymity that the Giants are not shopping outside linebacker Olivier Vernon.
Likewise, Vernon has not requested a trade, even as the organization's philosophy appears to be shifting from trying to win now to building a young roster for the future.
