Report: Jets Land Edge Rusher Carl Lawson

Joe Douglas

In another big free agent move, the New York Jets have reportedly come to terms on a deal with free agent edge rusher Carl Lawson.

Over his past two pro seasons, Lawson has picked up 10.5 sacks along with 54 quarterbacks hits, 32 of which came in 2020.  While Lawson has never had eye-popping sack numbers, the Jets are hoping that will change under Robert Saleh.

Lawson joins wide receiver Cory Davis and linebacker Jarrad Davis as day 1 additions in free agency.

With Quinnen Williams and John Franklin-Myers on their defensive line, the Jets were in dire need of a presence off the edge which is what Lawson is expected to bring.
