2024 Fantasy Outlook
No longer an elite defender off the edge, Lawrence has recorded at least 50 tackles in each of his last three full seasons, but he hasn't topped 6.5 sacks in any of them and hasn't reached double-digit sacks since 2018. That gives him a decent floor but a limited ceiling for IDP purposes. Micah Parsons remains the biggest pass-rush threat on the Cowboys, but the 32-year-old Lawrence should provide solid support in the final year of his current contract. Read Past Outlooks
Two sacks in opener
Lawrence recorded five tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's win over the Browns.
ANALYSIS
Lawrence racked up four QB hits in total, part of a massive day for the Cowboys' pass rush that saw the unit pressure Deshaun Watson 25 times on 56 dropbacks, leading to six total sacks and 17 QB hits. The veteran defensive end hasn't had a season with double-digit sacks since 2018, but with offensive lines forced to key on Micah Parsons, Lawrence has a golden opportunity to turn back the clock in 2024.

After an injury-plagued 2021, Lawrence played all 17 games last season and recorded a career high in tackles (65) with six sacks. The 31-year-old no longer is the preeminent pass rusher in Dallas and hasn't recorded double-digit sacks since 2018, but Lawrence still is a threat off the edge that offenses need to account for, providing a solid complement to Micah Parsons. With 5.5 more sacks, Lawrence will reach 60 for his career and move into fourth place on the Cowboys' all-time list.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be cut by Cowboys
Jon Machota of The Athletic says that Lawrence could be a potential cap casualty as the Cowboys work to get under the salary cup heading into the 2022 season.
ANALYSIS
Lawrence is making top-of-the-market money on his current five-year, $105 million contract with the Cowboys, but he has produced relatively moderate results since signing with the team in April of 2019. The defensive end has registered just 14.5 sacks over the last three seasons and played just seven regular-season games in 2021 while rehabbing from early season foot surgery. Dallas' pass rush was buoyed by the emergence of fellow pass rushers Randy Gregory and Micah Parsons and the team may decide to move forward without Lawrence by saving $19 million if it cuts him post-June 1.
