Cowboys DE DeMarcus Lawrence out 6-8 weeks with broken foot

The Dallas Cowboys will be without their finest defender for the foreseeable future. Protective end Demarcus Lawrence left practice on Wednesday with an obvious foot injury and also was detailed as restricted on the injury report but points are worse than they originally seemed.

Lawrence damaged the fifth metatarsal and will need surgery. The earliest return for Lawrence is stated to be six to eight weeks and the defense will certainly need to wish he returns faster than later after giving up 31 points and also over 400 backyards in the season opener.

Lawrence is also the highest-paid player on the defense, set to make $17 million this year. Bursting onto the scene in 2017, Lawrence had 14.5 sacks as well as followed it up with one more double-digit sack season in 2018 to make himself a big expansion. After gaining the monster $105 million contract, the Boise State product has actually been possibly the one constant over recent years, being a regular performer also if the sack matter doesn't show it.

In Week 1 vs. the Buccaneers, Lawrence had 5 quarterback stress, making a 91.4 PFF grade along with a league-high 96.3 run defense grade. Lawrence looked every bit of the player that made the huge offer in 2019. With defensive end Randy Gregory potentially out on the COVID/Reserve checklist, Lawrence's lack will be felt instantly versus the Chargers, led by quarterback Justin Herbert.

Lawrence himself required to social networks to clear the air.
