Will make season debut in Week 2
Lawson (back) will play against the Cowboys on Sunday, per coach Robert Saleh, Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports reports.
Analysis: Saleh revealed that Lawson had dealt with a back injury leading up to Monday's win over the Bills, which prompted the coaching staff to keep the defensive end out. Lawson had 7.0 sacks in 2022 and should play a prominent role in New York's deep pass rushing rotation now that he's healthy.

Won't play Monday
Lawson (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's matchup against the Bills, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Lawson dealt with a back issue throughout training camp, but he wasn't listed on the Jets' initial Week 1 injury report, suggesting he'd be able to play in the season opener. However, it appears the team wants to give him one more week to build up to game speed. Jermaine Johnson will likely start in Lawson's absence, while Bryce Huff and Will McDonald could see extra snaps as depth options.

Should play Monday night
Lawson (back) wasn't listed on the Jets' injury report Thursday ahead of their Week 1 game versus Buffalo, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Despite struggling with the back issue throughout training camp and into September, Lawson won't miss the Jets' season opener. He's seeking the first double-digit sack season of his career in 2023, but having to chase around Josh Allen in Week 1 means Lawson won't have an easy start.

Back at practice
Lawson (back) returned to practice Tuesday, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Coach Robert Saleh said he's optimistic Lawson will suit up Week 1 versus the Bills, but the defensive end doesn't yet appear to be practicing in full. He has just under two weeks remaining before New York's prime time regular-season opener on Monday Night Football.

Still dealing with injury
Lawson (back) may not be ready to suit up in Week 1 according to head coach Robert Saleh, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lawson has dealt with the back issue throughout camp, and it was reported Aug. 16 that he could be back this week. However, it now appears that is highly unlikely, and Lawson's availability for the start of the season is therefore in jeopardy.

Nearing return
Head coach Robert Saleh is hopeful that Larson (back) will return to practice next week, Skyler Carlin of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Larson has missed practice for multiple weeks now as he tries to recover from the back issue. However, it appears that the 28-year-old is getting closer to a return, which is good news for the Jets defense.

Reworks deal
Lawson restructured his contract with the Jets on Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lawson's reworked deal will help to open up $12.7 million in 2023 salary cap space. The 27-year-old will go from earning a non-guaranteed $15 million this year to a guaranteed $8 million and the ability to earn $3 million more in incentives. Lawson is coming off perhaps the best season of his career, with 33 tackles, seven sacks, a forced fumble and fumble recovery.

Full go Thursday
Lawson (ankle) was a full participant during the Jets' practice Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lawson popped up as a limited participant on the Jets' injury report Wednesday after playing a season-high 73 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Week 5. However, the 27-year-old appears to have moved past this unspecified ankle issue after returning to practice in full Thursday. Lawson has recorded eight tackles, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble so far this season, and he should play a prominent pass-rushing role during Sunday's game against the Packers.

Limited Wednesday
Lawson (ankle) was limited during Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Lawson played a season-high 73 percent of the Jets' defensive snaps in Week 5 and recorded a sack for a second consecutive contest, but it appears the fifth-year pass rusher picked up an ankle injury as well. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but the Jets will likely be cautious with Lawson, who's returning from a season-ending Achilles injury he suffered last year. He'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for…read more

Making strong return from injury
Lawson tallied two tackles, one sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 40-17 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Lawson's strip sack of Miami quarterback Skylar Thompson helped set up Breece Hall's five-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter to give the Jets a 33-17 lead. After missing his inaugural season with the Jets in 2021 while recovering from a ruptured Achilles' tendon, Lawson has returned healthy for 2022, clearing 50 percent of the defensive snaps in each of New York's first five games while tallying 2.5 sacks.

Cleared for camp
The Jets activated Lawson (Achilles) off the PUP list Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lawson's stint on the PUP list lasted less than a week. He is set to start on the Jets' front seven come Week 1, though he doesn't get to the quarterback frequently enough to be fantasy relevant outside of the deepest of leagues.

On PUP list to start training camp
Lawson (Achilles) was placed on the Jets' active/PUP list Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lawson may need more time to fully recover before returning from a ruptured Achilles suffered last offseason. The 27-year-old defensive end is expected to be healthy for the start of the regular season, but he must receive medical clearance before he can practice in training camp. Lawson has yet to play for the Jets after signing a three-year, $45 million deal with the team as a free agent in March of 2021.

Expected to be ready by Week 1
Lawson (Achilles) is expected to be fully healthy by Week 1 of the 2022 regular season, Nick Wojton of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Lawson signed a three-year, $45 million contract with the Jets last year, but he never played a game for his new team after rupturing his left Achilles during training camp. Initial reports suggested he may be full go by training camp this year, but it appears New York will remain cautious with Lawson to avoid any potential setbacks. The 2017 fourth-round pick posted 36 tackles, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles across 16 games for the Bengals in 2020.

Still on track for training camp
Lawson (Achilles) said Wednesday that he expects to be back for training camp, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jets head coach Robert Saleh made similar comments about Lawson's status at the end of March and the pass rusher's rehab appears to be going well more than a month later. Lawson signed a big contract ahead of the 2021 season but missed the entire campaign due to a ruptured left Achilles suffered in August. He posted 36 tackles, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles across 16 games for the Bengals in 2020.

On track for training camp
Coach Robert Saleh said Monday he expects Lawson (Achilles) to be ready for the start of training camp.
Analysis: Lawson missed the entire 2021 campaign due to a ruptured left Achilles suffered last August. The Jets are hoping a full recovery on Lawson's part will allow him to return as an impact player on defense for the 2022 season, so the 26-year-old's recovery process this offseason will be worth keeping an eye on. Back in 2020, Lawson racked up 36 tackles, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles across 16 games for the Bengals.

Lands on injured reserve
The Jets placed Lawson (Achilles) on injured reserve Tuesday, Tyler Greenawalt of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Lawson suffered a season-ending injury during practice last Thursday in the form of a ruptured left Achilles' tendon. Losing the 26-year-old for the season after just having signed him to a three-year, $45 million contract back in March is a brutal blow for the Jets' defense. Lawson will set his sights on a lengthy road to recovery and work to retake the field ahead of training camp in 2022. He will no doubt undergo surgery in the near future.

Done for season
Lawson ruptured his Achilles on Thursday and will miss the entire 2021 season, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Lawson, who was carted off the practice field Thursday, had been signed by the team to a three-year, $45 million contract this offseason. Losing the defensive end, who had looked good this summer prior to his injury, is a big blow to the Jets defense, with the 26-year-old having been counted on to fortify the team's pass rush in 2021.

Set to undergo MRI
Lawson is slated to undergo an MRI on his Achilles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Lawson was carted off the practice field Thursday, and the fact that he has an Achilles' concern is obviously troubling. The Jets signed the 26-year-old to a three-year, $45 million contract this offseason and were counting on Lawson to bolster the team's pass rush in 2021.

Carted off with leg injury
Lawson (leg) was carted off the practice field Thursday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The severity of Lawson's injury remains undisclosed, but it's always worrying to see a player leave the field under such circumstances. The veteran defensive end inked a three-year, $45 million deal with the Jets this offseason, and the team is counting on him to lock down a starting role and bring pressure.

Comes to terms with Jets
Lawson signed a three-year, $45 million deal with Jets on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Lawson received $30 million in guaranteed money after a successful four-year stint in Cincinnati. He was most productive from a pass-rushing perspective in 2017 -- his rookie campaign -- when he managed 8.5 sacks. However, he earned by far his biggest role during the 2020 campaign, when he logged 723 defensive snaps. He'll immediately slot into a starting defensive end role with the Jets and be expected to bolster the pass rush.

Minimal action in finale
Lawson, who registered two solo tackles in Sunday's loss to the Ravens, ended his 2020 season with 36 tackles (18 solo), 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles.
Analysis: Lawson's 2020 campaign included new career highs in tackles and forced fumbles. The 25-year-old also saw the most defensive snaps (723) among Bengals D-linemen. The pass rusher enters the 2021 offseason as an unrestricted free agent, so he may have played his last down in Cincinnati.

Pads sack total
Lawson had two solo tackles, a sack and a forced fumble during Monday's 27-17 win over Pittsburgh.
Analysis: The 25-year-old broke a three-game sackless streak with his strip-sack of Ben Roethlisberger during the second quarter Monday. Lawson had a strong start with 3.5 sacks through the first four games of the year, but he has only two sacks in his past 10 games.

Sack on Sunday
Lawson recorded five tackles (three solo) and a sack across 38 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to Washington.
Analysis: Lawson recorded his first sack since Week 4, bringing his season total to 4.5. The 25-year-old defensive end continues to see expanded reps as the year goes on, as he played in 61 percent of the defensive snaps Sunday.

Set for increased role
Lawson is expected to start at defensive end for Sunday's game against the Colts, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis: Lawson will take on the increased role in place of Sam Hubbard, who was placed on injured reserve Thursday with an elbow injury. Lawson has been solid in a limited role this season, racking up 16 tackles (seven solo), 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble through five games. Don't expect a huge drop off with Hubbard out, as Lawson will provide a pass-rush duo with Carlos Dunlap for Week 6.

Stuffs stat sheet Sunday
Lawson recorded eight tackles (four solo), two sacks and forced fumble in Sunday's tie with the Eagles.
Analysis: Lawson had a monster day defensively for the Bengals, taking down Carson Wentz on two occasions in the second quarter. The second was a strip-sack, but the Eagles were able to recover -- eventually leading to a Greg Ward touchdown. Lawson will aim to continue ravaging opponent's quarterbacks, with Gardner Minshew and the Jaguars on the docket for this Sunday.

Gets to quarterback in season opener
Lawson tallied five tackles, a sack, a tackle for a loss and a quarterback hit in Week 1 against the Chargers.
Analysis: Lawson was frequently in the Chargers backfield and tallied his sack to end the first quarter. He was on the field for 58 percent of defensive snaps and will remain a key part of the Bengals' defensive-line rotation for remainder of the season.

Five sacks in 2019
Lawson had 23 tackles (17 solo) and five sacks in 12 games this season.
Analysis: Lawson missed two games in the middle of the season with a hamstring injury, but he otherwise served as a rotational defensive end for the Bengals. The 24-year-old had 8.5 sacks during his rookie campaign in 2017, but he hasn't been able to recreate that success over the last two seasons. Lawson enters the final year of his rookie contract in 2020.

Notches sack in loss
Lawson recorded two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Lawson played 26 snaps and was able to log his second sack of the year in the process. He's finished third among Bengals' defensive ends in snaps in both games since their Week 9 bye.

Full speed ahead
Lawson (hamstring) is listed as a full participant for Wednesday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lawson sat out the past two games, but Week 9's bye aided the third-year pro in getting back to full speed. In his last healthy game, Lawson played 63 of a possible 78 defensive snaps (80 percent) against the Ravens since Carlos Dunlap was injured. Dunlap is fine now, however, so Lawson is slated for a reserve role again.
