New York Giants acquire DT C.J. Okoye from Baltimore Ravens

The New York Giants have acquired nose tackle C.J. Okoye from the Baltimore Ravens, reuniting him with John Habraugh.

The New York Giants have bolstered their defensive line by acquiring defensive tackle C.J. Okoye from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a 2028 seventh-round pick. Okoye, a 6-foot-6, 365-pound nose tackle, will reunite with Giants head coach John Harbaugh, having previously spent the 2025 season with the Ravens. The 24-year-old Nigerian player, who entered the NFL through the International Player Pathway Program, made 15 tackles and recorded one tackle for loss and one pass deflection in 13 games last season.

This acquisition provides the Giants with an additional large body to strengthen their defensive line, particularly as they finalize their 53-man roster ahead of the upcoming regular season.
