According to reports, the New York Giants have agreed to terms with offensive lineman Daniel Faalele, pending a physical.

Faalele started every game for Baltimore over the last two seasons at right guard.

Faalele would be the third member from the Ravens' 2022 draft class all taken in the fourth round to sign with the Giants, joining punter Jordan Stout (No. 130) and tight end Isaiah Likely (No. 139).

Overall, the 6-foot-8, 370-pound Faalele has appeared in 66 regular-season games with 35 starts, 34 of which have been at right guard. Faalele started one game as a rookie at left tackle. He has also appeared in five postseason games, including two starts at right guard.

Last season, Faalele helped pave the way for an offense that ranked No. 1 in the NFL in yards per rush (5.3), No. 2 in rushing yards per game (156.6), and No. 3 in rushing touchdowns.

In 2024, Baltimore ranked No. 1 in yards per game (424.9), yards per play (6.8, third-best single-season mark in NFL history), and red zone efficiency (74.2%), while setting a franchise single-season record with 7,224 net yards. Baltimore's rushing attack also averaged 5.76 yards per carry, the best figure in a single season in NFL history.

Faalele grew up in Melbourne, Australia, where he originally played basketball and rugby when he was younger. He moved to the United States (Bradenton, Fla.) to attend IMG Academy and began playing football in 2016.

He went on to play right tackle at the University of Minnesota and started 31 of the 34 career games.
