CAREER
2025: Tiger-Cats

He appeared in 17 regular season games, recording 96 receptions for 1,482 yards and 11 touchdowns, finishing among the league leaders in all major receiving categories. His production and big-play ability earned him both East Division All-Star and CFL All-Star honours, while serving as a focal point of Hamilton’s high-powered offence and helping the club reach the East Division Final.
2023-2024: Blue Bombers
After returning to the Blue Bombers in 2023, he recorded 50 receptions for 901 yards and six touchdowns in just 12 games, highlighted by a 200-yard performance against the BC Lions, while also contributing in both playoff contests.
In 2024, Lawler appeared in 10 regular season games, totaling 41 receptions for 662 yards and four touchdowns, before elevating his play in the postseason with six catches for 204 yards and three touchdowns across the Western Final and Grey Cup.
2022: Elks
Signed with the Elks on the first day of free agency, February 8, 2022. Led the Elks in receiving yardage (894) and receiving touchdowns (5) on 58 receptions — despite playing in just 12 games. Lawler was twice injured, first with an ankle and then later in the year with a season-ending shoulder injury. Lawler signed a two-year deal to return to the Blue Bombers on February 14, 2023.
2018-2021: Blue Bombers
After being signed to the Blue Bombers practice roster in 2018, Lawler emerged as one of the CFL’s top receivers during the 2019 season. That year, he broke out with 41 receptions for a team-leading 637 yards and four touchdowns, earning the club’s Most Outstanding Rookie honours and adding a strong playoff run that helped Winnipeg capture the 107th Grey Cup.
He elevated his game to an elite level in 2021, leading the CFL with 1,014 receiving yards on 64 catches and six touchdowns while earning CFL All-Star, CFLPA All-Star, and West Division All-Star recognition. Lawler also contributed six receptions for 90 yards in the postseason, helping the Blue Bombers secure their second straight Grey Cup title.
2016-2017: NFL Seattle Seahawks
Lawler was a seventh-round pick of the Seahawks in the 2016 NFL Draft and spent time on the team’s practice roster over the next two seasons.
COLLEGE
2012-2015: California
Lawler enjoyed a stellar career at the University of California, where he was ranked second on the school’s all-time touchdown receptions list and 12th overall in the Pac-12. He left school following his junior season and after declaring for the 2016 NFL Draft.
