Lawler was waived by the Seahawks on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Entering his rookie season, Lawler could find himself in a bit of a pickle when it comes to finding a new home. The 23-year-old has yet to prove himself on the professional level which could be held against him. On the other hand, the thought of the unknown could be enticing for some teams. Given the amount of injuries that will soon come once regular season kicks off, Lawler could soon be the subject of microscopic dissection.

Lawler (ankle) played 15 snaps Friday did not catch his lone target in Seattle's preseason game against the Chiefs.

EDGE Analysis

Lawler has virtually no chance of making the roster. The team likely will keep six wide receivers, and Lawler is no better than eighth on the depth chart. The Seahawks might try to pass him through waivers and add him to practice squad, as they did last year.

Lawler (ankle) is expected to play in Friday's preseason game against the Chiefs, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lawler has been saddled with an ankle injury of late but it seems that issue is a thing of the past. An impressive performance Friday would go a long ways toward helping the 2016 seventh-rounder earn a roster spot.

Lawler sat out Sunday's practice with an ankle injury, Gregg Bell of The News Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The extent of Lawler's injury isn't clear. He'll need to return to full health prior to next Sunday in order to play in the Seahawks' preseason opener against the Chargers.

Lawler was added to the Seahawks practice squad Sunday, Stephen Cohen of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reports.

EDGE Analysis

A seventh-round rookie, Lawler failed to impress over the final two weeks of the preseason, catching just one pass for 11 yards on four targets. Despite missing some time with a groin injury, undrafted rookie Tanner McEvoy beat out Lawler and a few others for the No. 5 wideout job. Lawler might still join the active roster within the first few weeks of the season, but he'd likely just be providing depth.

Lawler caught three of six targets for 47 yards Thursday in Seattle's second preseason game.

EDGE Analysis

A seventh-round pick, Lawler played well for the most part. He is battling for the last WR spot. His chances of making the roster could come down to how many receivers the team keeps. If it keeps only five, he'll likely be out of luck.

Lawler sat out of Tuesday's minicamp after hyper-extending his knee, Curtis Crabtree of the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lawler, a seventh-round pick in April's draft, is vying for a spot on the bottom of Seahawks' depth chart. Once considered a potential third or second pick, Lawler's stock fell in pre-draft workouts as he exhibited a below-average skill set. The injury shouldn't cause any long-term absence but is something to keep note of as training camp nears.
