Report: Giants, Dexter Lawrence Talk New Contract; Potentially 'Close' to Daron Payne

After an excellent 2022 season, it appears that New York Giants defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence is due for a significant pay raise.

The Giants picked up Lawrence's fifth-year option after the 2021 season, but he is slated to be an unrestricted free agent after 2023. He is coming off of a season in which he was selected to his first pro bowl and was named second-team all-pro.

When looking at the market for Lawrence, it appears that he could get a deal for upwards of $20 million per season.

"The Giants have been talking to Lawrence and his reps about a potential deal," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said during an appearance on SportsCenter.
