Lawrence Seeks Trade, Seahawks Eye Extensions

0:00On April 6th, Giants star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, a two-time all pro, just requested a trade after two years of stalled contract talks. He's pushing for top money at his position, but his current deal averages 22.5 million per year, leaving him 12 on the list come, 2026. Earlier this week, reports from Adam Schaefter highlighted the impasse, with Lawrence's cap hit jumping to nearly 27 million next year and, almost 29 million in 2027. His play dipped in 2025, despite more snaps, making teams think twice. Seahawks fans are buzzing about a potential splash, especially with Lawrence linking up to ex-Giant's teammates, Julian Love and Leonard Williams, both. Fresh off Super Bowl rings in Seattle. That front-7 is already league-best, anchored by Stuzz like Jaren Reed and Byron Murphy the second. Still, grabbing him looks like a long shot, without a big pay cut, which doesn't fit his ass for a raise.

1:00Seattle's wisely eyeing extensions for their own winners, like the 32-year-old Williams, who's dominating lately. Long-term, pairing Murphy and Lawrence inside could dominate, but right now the timings off as the champs lock in their core for another title run.
