The Dolphins activated Lawson (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Lawson was placed on the list Thursday after either producing a positive test or coming into close contact with someone who tested positive, but he's been cleared to return to team facilities. The 2016 first-round pick will help bolster the Dolphins' pass rush in 2020, but he has limited IDP upside with just 32 tackles and 6.5 sacks over 15 games last year.
