The Dallas Cowboys have been decimated along the defensive line this season by injuries. Veteran end DeMarcus Lawrence was one of them; he was placed on injured reserve after suffering a Lisfranc injury to his right foot in Week 4 against the New York Giants. He's been eligible to return since November 10. Although it wasn't out of the question, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones deemed him a "long shot" to play on Monday Night Football against the Cincinnati Bengals, but also said he'd expect him back sooner than later.
