Sitting at 5-7, a win on Monday night would put them one step closer to having a .500 record and having a potential chance at the playoffs. Despite having the better record and being at home,\u00a0the Cowboys are still 6.5-point underdogs as of Monday.<\/p>\n<p id=\"tkA2Z7\">It appears that the defensive line will continue to be short-handed, as Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones told the media on Monday that it is a \u201clongshot\u201d for DE DeMarcus Lawrence to make his return to the field against the Bengals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"77eZgN\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfdGltZWxpbmVfbGlzdCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOltdLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2ZvbGxvd2VyX2NvdW50X3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9iYWNrZW5kIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19yZWZzcmNfc2Vzc2lvbiI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZm9zbnJfc29mdF9pbnRlcnZlbnRpb25zX2VuYWJsZWQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib24iLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X21peGVkX21lZGlhXzE1ODk3Ijp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRyZWF0bWVudCIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3Nob3dfYmlyZHdhdGNoX3Bpdm90c19lbmFibGVkIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19kdXBsaWNhdGVfc2NyaWJlc190b19zZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdXNlX3Byb2ZpbGVfaW1hZ2Vfc2hhcGVfZW5hYmxlZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdmlkZW9faGxzX2R5bmFtaWNfbWFuaWZlc3RzXzE1MDgyIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRydWVfYml0cmF0ZSIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfbGVnYWN5X3RpbWVsaW5lX3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9mcm9udGVuZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9fQ%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1863668265060372536&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloggingtheboys.com%2F2024%2F12%2F2%2F24311380%2Fdallas-cowboys-demarcus-lawrence-injury-injured-reserve-longshot-play-monday-night-against-bengals&amp;sessionId=0afd502aa9c42f7a069349feb70ef29de6c66e63&amp;siteScreenName=BloggingTheBoys&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1863668265060372536\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"Lv3w2C\">Lawrence has been out of action since he suffered a Lisfranc injury to his right foot in the team\u2019s Week 3 game against the\u00a0New York Giants.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Xv9BMI\">If there\u2019s been one bright spot to the Bengals disastrous season, QB Joe Burrow has been incredible and the team\u2019s offense remains explosive. It is noteworthy that Burrow had a noticeable limp after taking a cleat to the leg against the\u00a0Steelers\u00a0on Sunday, and that could impact his mobility if available against the Cowboys in their matchup. However, having Lawrence back would have been big for a Cowboys defensive line that has remained thin throughout the season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"BVZsEP\">While Jones said it\u2019s a longshot for Lawrence to play against the Bengals, he did provide optimism for a return \u201csooner rather than later.\u201d It\u2019s impossible to overstate the impact that Lawrence brings on the field for the team, as he is an effective run-defender and pass-rusher on the field. Making four Pro Bowls in his career as well as receiving a second-team All-Pro selection, the Cowboys have been missing his experience over the course of the season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We will see if DeMarcus Lawrence does indeed play next Monday night.
