New York Giants to host WR Makai Lemon on pre-draft visit

The New York Giants will conduct their due diligence on USC wide receiver Makai Lemon this offseason. The Giants have just under three weeks remaining to prepare for the 2026 NFL draft. New York’s wide receiver room would benefit from another elite pass-catcher to complement Malik Nabers next season.

Lemon is a complete wide receiver with the tools to perform at a high level immediately. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that the Giants will host a visit with Lemon this spring. #USC WR Makai Lemon spent Thursday with the #Chiefs on a Top 30 visit, source said.

He recorded 79 receptions for 1,156 yards in 2025 and scored 11 receiving touchdowns. The AP first-team All-American’s versatility as a pass-catcher during his junior year at USC addresses the Giants' need in the slot following the departure of Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency.
