Dexter Lawrence Drives Cincinnati's Newly Formidable Defensive Line

Traded to the Cincinnati Bengals for a first-round pick, star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence has anchored a radically overhauled defensive line that ranks 14th in DVOA and fifth in total DVOA. Lawrence has 3.0 sacks and 14 pressures, drawing double-teams on 94 of 234 snaps. His dominant presence at the 0-tech and 1-tech alignments has opened up major opportunities for linemates Jonathan Allen and Boye Mafe as the Bengals surge.
