Giants trade guard Daniel Faalele to the Jaguars for late 2027 pick: Source

The New York Giants have agreed to trade backup offensive lineman Daniel Faalele to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a late-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft, according to a league source. The move comes after a quick reshaping of New York’s line depth chart: a week earlier, the Giants traded for Miami guard Francis Mauigoa with the 10th pick in the 2026 draft and pushed Faalele behind newly installed starters. Jacksonville has also needed experience after right guard Patrick Mekari had back surgery. Faalele, a favorite of coach John Harbaugh, signed a one-year $1.4 million minimum contract with $687,500 guaranteed. New York saves cap but leaves $187,500 in dead money.
