The New York Giants have made it clear that they are not open to trading one of their key players, and that player is none other than edge rusher Azeez Ojulari.
Ojulari’s name has been heavily mentioned in trade chatter lately, but according to sources close to the Giants, the team has no intention of parting ways with their talented young pass rusher.
The Giants drafted Ojulari in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft, and despite only playing in 20 games so far in his career, he has already shown flashes of brilliance. With 13.5 sacks in just two seasons, Ojulari is seen as a key component of the Giants’ pass rush going forward.
The decision to keep Ojulari is also likely due to the fact that the Giants are currently in a rebuilding phase and are looking to build around their young core of players. Ojulari, along with quarterback Daniel Jones, running back Saquon Barkley, and wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson, is seen as a key building block for the team’s future success.
While there may be some temptation to trade Ojulari and receive draft picks or other assets in return, the Giants are likely to resist that temptation and keep their young pass rusher. With Ojulari, the Giants have a legitimate threat off the edge who can cause problems for opposing quarterbacks, and that is something that will be essential to their success going forward.
It will be interesting to see how Ojulari develops in the coming seasons, but one thing is certain – the Giants are committed to keeping him on their roster. As the team continues to build and grow, Ojulari will be a key player to watch, and fans should be excited to see what he can do in the years to come.
