Dexter Lawrence Traded to Bengals for 10th Overall Pick
Three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence has been traded from the New York Giants to the Cincinnati Bengals in a deal that sees the Bengals' 10th overall pick in the 2026 Draft heading back to New York. The two-time second-team All-Pro had reportedly demanded a trade after initially seeking a new deal with the Giants, and the team obliged after the two sides were unable to come to an agreement. The 28-year-old Lawrence registered only half a sack in 2025 after tallying a career-high nine in 2024, but his 108 pressures since 2022, when lined up at the nose, are more than triple that of any other player in the league. Cincinnati has had one of the league's lowest-ranked defensive units for years, and they have paid a steep price to bolster the trenches. Lawrence's true impact will now be put to the test without the help of a much stronger surrounding cast, particularly on the edges.
