Giants GM Jerry Reese told reporters on Sunday that they’ve had “some discussions” about signing OL Justin Pugh and C Weston Richburg to long-term extensions, per Jordan Raanan.
The Giants picked up Pugh’s fifth-year option back in April, which will run them $8.8 million in 2017. However, this figure is guaranteed only for injury and won’t prevent them from working on a long-term extension over the next year.
Pugh,  25, was selected No. 19 overall by the Giants back in 2013. He’s currently in the final year of his four-year, $8.346 million contract that included a $4,449,744 signing bonus and a base salary of $1,157,307 for the 2016 season.
In 2015, Pugh appeared in 14 games and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 9Â offensive tackle out of 77 qualifying players.
Richburg, 25, is a former second-round pick of the Giants back in 2014. He’s currently in the third year of his four-year, $4,877,346 rookie contract and stands to make base salaries of $863,394 and $1,085,091 over the final two years of the agreement.
In 2015, Richburg appeared in 15 games for the Giants and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 3 center out of 39 qualifying players.
