The Giants have acquired defensive tackle C.J. Okoye from the Ravens, per ESPN's reporting from NFL Network sources Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. According to ESPN, New York sent a 2028 seventh-round pick to Baltimore in the deal.

The trade reunites Okoye with Giants head coach John Harbaugh, who coached him with the Ravens. Multiple outlets described Okoye as a promising young defender and run-stopper, with CBS Sports giving the Giants an "ace" grade for acquiring him "at minimal cost." The deal came as the Giants prepared to cut their roster down to 53 players.
