Dexter Lawrence Aims for No. 97 in Bengals, Eyes Jersey Swap with Stewart

New Bengals defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, acquired from the Giants, wants to wear No. 97 in Cincinnati—a number he wore in seven Giants seasons—and says he’ll talk to 97‑holder Shemar Stewart about swapping. Stewart, the Bengals’ 2025 first‑round pick, currently wears 97; the team hasn’t assigned numbers to newcomers yet.
