The NY Jets have acquired linebacker Shaq Lawson from the the Houston Texans for a future sixth-round pick. Lawson will leave without playing a single regular game for Houston after joining the team in March; Lawson was traded to Houston from the Dolphins in exchange for linebacker Benardrick McKinney and a seventh-round pick.
Lawson, a former Clemson All-American, was a first-round pick for the Bills in the 2016 NFL draft before he joined the Dolphins in 2020 on a three-year deal worth $30 million. Lawson recorded 32 combined tackles and four sacks last season for Miami.
