The New York Giants are trading for Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle C.J. Okoye, per a report from Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. The Giants are sending a 2028 seventh-round pick to the Ravens in exchange for Okoye.
Okoye played for John Harbaugh in 2025 with the Ravens after playing for Jim Harbaugh as an international pathway player for the Los Angeles Chargers in 2023 and 2024. Okoye is a massive defensive tackle, listed at 6-foot-6, 365 pounds.
It was widely expected that the Giants would make
moves to reinforce an interior defensive line that has been a weakness throughout the summer and preseason. It makes sense that their first move would be to acquire a player that not only has rare traits but is also familiar to John Harbaugh.
Okoye played in 13 games for the Ravens last season, making 15 tackles in 214 defensive snaps.
