Giants Send Jordan Phillips to Cowboys, Open Door for Rookie Elijah Chatman.
In a rare move within the NFC East, the New York Giants have traded defensive tackle Jordan Phillips and a 7th-round pick to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a 6th-round pick, per Jordan Schultz.
Just weeks before the 2024 NFL regular season kicks off, this unexpected trade has raised eyebrows. The Giants had signed Phillips to a one-year deal this offseason, but with roster cuts looming, it became clear that his spot on the 53-man roster was in jeopardy.
Phillips, a seasoned veteran, appeared to be on the bubble due to the impressive performance of undrafted rookie free agent Elijah Chatman. Chatman’s emergence during training camp has been nothing short of remarkable, forcing the Giants’ hand in this deal.
While trades within the division are always noteworthy, this one carries added intrigue as the Giants look to solidify their defensive line while getting value for Phillips. More details on this trade and its implications are sure to follow.
There have been conflicting reports on the specifics of the trade, with some sources indicating it’s a 2026 pick swap and others suggesting it’s a 2025 pick swap. As of now, we’re awaiting further clarification and an official announcement to confirm the details.
