Also, Lawson was not the starting SAM last year, Vigil was. Can't find the article link that I read a few weeks ago, but it said Vigil was still the starting SAM with Brown at MIKE and Burfict at WILL.
I know Lawson wasn't starting last year it was his first time playing as a stack linebacker. Vigil is the incumbent so he will be penciled in to start, but their vision of classifying him as a LB rather than an end is so he can stand up in the base and kick down in the sub packages. I will guess Lawson eventually takes over for Vigil at some point.
