It's April 25th. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI, your gridiron update. I'm Cory with the story. New York Giants GM Joe Showin' shut down rumors past, saying no trade talks are happening for star outside linebacker, Kavon Tivito. This came right after an NFL insider reported strong interest from the New Orleans Saints, hinting a deal could drop as soon as Friday night during the 2026 draft. There it is, the Giants and Saints been chatting for months, kicking tires since February, but the Giants want top dollar that might need to come down for. Anything to move. Tivito didn't help calm things, dropping an Instagram meme that looked like a farewell vibe from Fast and Furious. Fans and media lit up when the Giants grabbed Ohio State linebacker Arvel Reese 5th overall, thinking it spelled goodbye for Tivito. But shown and head coach backed him up hard, stressing they hold on to good talent and love having Kavon around. Tivito heads into his 5th year option at $14,750,000, but injury sideline him parts of 3.

Seasons out of 4. He flast elite past rushing skills in 2023 with 11.5 sacks, living up to his 5th overall pick from 2022. Trading him would free up major cap space for the Giants, but that underperformance history leaves them in a tough spot. Be building around his, potential or cash in now before the draft us settles.
