Dexter Lawrence discusses impact beyond sack numbers with new team

Dexter Lawrence, now with the Bengals, reflects on his role heading into the 2026 season. Despite recording only 0.5 sacks in 2025, he emphasizes his overall contributions to the game are not defined by sack totals. Lawrence faced significant double-teams last season but is optimistic about playing alongside new teammates Jonathan Allen, Boye Mafe, and Cashius Howell, which may alleviate some pressure. He is preparing for training camp later this summer, expressing a commitment to improving his performance.
