DeMarcus Lawrence could be back for the next Dallas Cowboys game.
The Dallas Cowboys have won two games in a row, and while they are “only” 5-7 through Thanksgiving, they are technically alive in the NFC playoff picture. Determining how “alive” the Cowboys are is clearly a matter of personal opinion, but in an objective sense the Cowboys have mathematical life left with regards to making their playoffs. If they continue to win games then obviously all things become more possible.
Up next for Dallas, after a long rest following their Thanksgiving win, will be a Monday night game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Speaking after the team’s win over the New York Giants, Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons revealed that DeMarcus Lawrence may be back for it.
The last game that Lawrence appeared in was the first Dallas matchup against the Giants all the way back in Week 4. In the time since, the Cowboys have obviously struggled, but as of late the defense has found itself a bit and the play of DeMarvion Overshown is a clear reason for that, plus the return of Parsons from his injury.
Having a group of Parsons, Overshown and DeMarcus Lawrence manning the front seven could go a long way towards pulling off the incredibly long shot of making the playoffs. At the very least it could provide a swan song of sorts for Lawrence as it is very possible that this is his last season with the team.
We will see if he does, in fact, wind up returning for Cincinnati.
