  • Jaguars' Nevin Lawson: Fills stat sheet

    Lawson compiled four tackles (three solo), two passes defended and an interception in a 23-20 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. Lawson stepped into a big role for the first time since he joined the Jaguars after being let go by the Raiders earlier in the season. Playing 100 percent of the snaps with Tyson Campbell (toe) out, Lawson took advantage of his opportunity and made an impact. With Campbell's status up in the air heading into the Week 7 bye, it's hard to say whether Lawson will continue to enjoy as prominent a role in Week 8 against the Seahawks.

    Lawson (concussion) recorded 47 tackles, four PBUs, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and one touchdown over 15 games in 2017.
