Shaq Lawson News
The New York Jets are attempting to boot their defense after the loss of pass rusher Carl Lawson (Achilles) earlier in camp. On Sunday, the Jets acquired linebacker Shaq Lawson from the Houston Texans in exchange for a sixth-round pick. I mean, it's something, but it's not going to fix the Jets defense. Lawson has tallied 18.5 sacks over the last four seasons, so he does offer some upside. Despite his addition, the Jets should be a one of the worst defenses in the league. Fantasy managers should stay far away from them, but maybe they can be a streaming option against another terrible team, but no promises.
The Miami Dolphins are expected to sign former Buffalo Bills first-round pass-rusher Shaq Lawson, according to sources. Lawson had a career-high 6.5 sacks in his final season in Buffalo and will help as the Dolphins attempt to get after the quarterback in 2020. Miami was last in the NFL in total sacks last year and will need more than just Lawson if they are able to improve their pass rush moving forward. They're hoping Lawson can thrive with a change of scenery. He won't be worth drafting in IDP leagues, but he's one to watch in his new home.
The Miami Dolphins have strong interest in free-agent defensive end Shaq Lawson on the first day of free agency, according to a source. Miami really could use help all over the field, but pass rush is a primary concern after they finished last in the NFL in sacks in 2019. Lawson has just 16.5 quarterback takedowns in his four seasons in the league, but he did post a career-high 6.5 sacks in 15 games for the Bills last year. He'd definitely be worth a low-price flier for a rebuilding Dolphins team.
