DeMarcus Lawrence is questionable

Dallas Cowboys rookie defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Chicago Bears because of a rib injury he tweaked in practice this week.

Lawrence was limited in two of the Cowboys’ three practices this week. They had a walk-through on Wednesday before boarding a plane for Chicago.

Safety Jeff Heath (thumb), cornerback Tyler Patmon (knee) and linebacker Dekoda Watson (hamstring) have been ruled out of the Bears' game. Heath and Patmon, who has missed the past three games, could return Dec. 14 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Defensive end George Selvie, who was limited in each practice this week with a thumb injury, is listed as probable.

Quarterback Tony Romo (back) is one of eight remaining players listed as probable. Defensive tackle Josh Brent (groin), defensive tackle Tyrone Crawford (knee), tackle Doug Free (foot), defensive tackle Nick Hayden (shoulder), linebacker Rolando McClain (knee), tackle Tyron Smith (illness) and wide receiver Terrance Williams (finger) are also probable.
