FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys will wait until Saturday to activate defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence from the reserve/suspended list, according to a source.
Lawrence returned to practice this week after missing the first four games for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy. With guard La'el Collins moved to injured reserve earlier in the week after having toe surgery, the Cowboys do not have to create a roster spot for Lawrence.
They will have until 4 p.m. ET Saturday to make the move in order for Lawrence to play Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Lawrence was not made available to the media during the week.
"He looks great," linebacker Sean Lee said. "He had a really good camp, worked hard during training camp, had a really good offseason, so I think he’s ready to play. And I think he’ll have a big impact."
Lawrence had back surgery that kept him off the field in the organized team activities and mini-camp in the spring. He was able to practice during training camp and played in the preseason before his suspension took effect.

Could be waiting to see if we have to sign a kicker? Other than health I can't see any other reason to wait

I am still not sure if he injured on not,Jerry says one thing and Garrett contradicts him.I will say a bad back for a DE is very concerning.

I think we cut a safety. Only reason the Showers move makes any sense.

Surprisingly, with all the talk about his back this week, he didn't even show up on the injury report.

We sure it was as big a deal as the reports made it out to be?

They said that was because he wasn't on the roster yet. That was also why he was able to decline interviews.
