Todd Archer reports that the Cowboys are releasing veteran DE Carl Lawson, who could return to the practice squad.
Lawson, 29, is a former fourth-round pick of the Bengals back in 2017 out of Auburn. He played out the final year of his four-year, $3.05 million contract and was testing the open market for the first time in his NFL career when he signed a three-year, $45 million deal with the Jets in 2021.
Lawson was entering the final year of that deal and set to make a base salary of $15 million in 2023 when he agreed to a pay cut. He became an unrestricted free agent this off-season.
In 2023, Lawson appeared in six games for the Jets and recorded five tackles and no sacks.
