DeMarcus Lawrence is headed to the NFC Championship Game.
DeMarcus Lawrence will get to play in an NFC Championship Game.
In his first season away from the Cowboys, Lawrence will officially reach the territory that has eluded the Cowboys since well before the team traded up to draft him in the second-round of the 2014 NFL Draft. This marks the second year in a row where a former Cowboys player made it to the title game in their first season away from the team, by the way.
Last year it was Tyler Biadasz, Dorance Armstrong, Noah Igbinoghene, and Dante Fowler (who later returned obviously) who were a part of the Washington team that reached the step before the Super Bowl. Where DeMarcus is a bit different than them is he had some choice words to say about the Cowboys as he left that were related to this whole thing.
You will recall that upon arriving in Seattle that Lawrence did an interview where he called Dallas his home, but he said that he would never win a Super Bowl there. Micah Parsons, then a member of the Cowboys, got defensive and the two had a back and forth on X/Twitter, but ultimately history is written by the winners and right now DeMarcus is the one holding the pen.
Good for him.
