The five-time Pro Bowl selection told ‌a Yahoo Sports reporter on Friday that "this will be my last year."

Lawrence, 34, won the Super Bowl with ​Seattle last season following 11 campaigns with ​the Dallas Cowboys.

He made 16 starts in 2025, ⁠recorded six sacks and recovered three fumbles -- ​two of them for touchdowns.

Lawrence said he wants to ​spend more time with his wife and six children back in Dallas, and that he thought about retiring after ​last season.

"It was a tough process," he said. "But ​through the grace of God, I'm able to play another ‌year ⁠and soak it all up one more good time before I hang it up."

Lawrence has 67.5 sacks, 503 tackles, 146 QB hits, 24 forced ​fumbles, 11 fumble ​recoveries and ⁠two interceptions in 157 career games (139 starts) with the Cowboys (2014-24) and Seahawks. ​Dallas drafted him in the second round ​in ⁠2014 and he made the Pro Bowl in 2017, 2018, 2022, 2023 and 2025.

Lawrence signed a ⁠three-year, $32.5 million ​deal with Seattle in March ​2025. He is due a base salary of $8.15 million in ​2026 and $9.65 million in 2027, per Spotrac.
