The NFL announced the fifth-year option numbers for the 2019 first-rounders on Monday. That means the values for New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones and defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence are officially set.
The number for Jones was actually higher than anticipated. Initially expected to be around the $20 million mark, Jones’ fifth-year option would actually cost the team $22.384 million. And while Lawrence has been a bit of an afterthought, the Giants have a tough decision to make there, too.
