It was a nonchalant answer Jack Sawyer gave as to how much bad weight he trimmed this offseason, but upon quick reflection it’s pretty substantial that he’s dropped “six to seven” percent of his body fat.

Despite bulking back up to 265 pounds in his switch from the hybrid defensive end-linebacker “Jack” position to once again be a true defensive end, Sawyer is feeling lean, mean and keen on having a breakout season with his fellow defensive linemen in 2023.

“This offseason I wanted to trim up a little bit and lose some body fat, which I did,” Sawyer said.
