One of the biggest storylines going into the New York Jets‘ preseason finale was the return of Carl Lawson. Slightly over one year after he was carted off the Green Bay Packers’ practice field with an Achilles injury, Lawson was set to make his return to live-game action.
And boy, did he live up to the hype.
Lawson only played 7 defensive snaps in the game, but that was all he needed to assure Jets fans that he is still capable of being the same player he was prior to his devastating injury.
