Lawrence will undergo further testing.
He had recorded three total tackles, two of which were solo, prior to exiting in the third quarter. He was ultimately ruled out for the game.
New York was down 20-10 at the time of the injury. That deficit would grow to 27-10 at the end of the third quarter and the team would eventually fall 27-20.
Lawrence was a first-round pick in 2019 and has missed just two games in his career. He has 44 tackles, 16 quarterback hits and a career-high nine sacks thus far in 2024.
New York will hope that his injury absence will not extend past Thursday’s game, although some extra rest before the team’s Dec. 8 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers should at least help.
