According to NFL Networks Ian Rapoport, the Denver Broncos and the New York Giants are moving towards a Riley Dixon trade.
Sources: The #Giants are in the process of trading for #Broncos P Riley Dixon. When Marquette King signed in Denver, he was on the trading block and NYG swooped in.

The Broncos signed former Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King so they could move on from Dixon. The fact that they’re getting any value in return for Dixon, a punter, is a plus.
I’ll update this once more details are reported.
Update:
The Giants will be sending a conditional 2019 7th round pick in return for punter Riley Dixon according to NFL Networks Ian Rapoport.

The terms of the conditions have not been reported as of yet.
Broncos were upfront with Riley Dixon. Vance Joseph sat down with him face to face the day Broncos signed Marquette King. Dixon was told then he would be moved. Broncos worked w/Dixon's agent as to preferred destination. There were multiple teams interested in Dixon. #9sports
