Cox had seven sacks last season despite playing his lowest percentage of snaps since his rookie year, but the reduced playing time resulted in a more engaged, and efficient play at defensive tackle.
With Cox’s return, he’ll line up next to second-year defensive tackle Jordan Davis, while Brandon Graham and Josh Sweat will assume the roles at defensive end.
