Jaguars Are Acquiring Guard Daniel Faalele From the Giants for a Draft Pick, AP Source Says
The deal gives Jacksonville a Day 3 2027 pick and adds offensive line depth after Patrick Mekari’s back surgery, sources said.
- The New York Giants traded offensive lineman Daniel Faalele to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Wednesday for an undisclosed late-round 2027 draft pick, ending his brief tenure with the team.
- Jacksonville sought offensive line depth after starting right guard Patrick Mekari underwent back surgery recently, leaving the team dealing with a rash of injuries on the interior line.
- Signed in April, Faalele struggled during the preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings, where he was demolished on a pass protection play that led to a sack of starting quarterback Jaxson Dart.
- Faalele spent four seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, where Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe criticized him harshly, saying he was "as big as he is sorry" on film.
- The Jaguars will host the Carolina Panthers on Friday in a preseason meeting, providing the team an opportunity to test their reshuffled offensive line before the regular season begins.
