Felix Jones Gone For The Year

This really sucks, but rookie running back Felix Jones is gone for the year to repair a torn ligament.
You can read details here but what is surprising is the injury is not his hamstring but his big toe.

DMN reports he sustained the toe injury while rehabbing for his hamstring. Yikes.

Jones provided the occasional huge boost to the offense with a big run or kick off return. He probably played the biggest factor in the second game of the year against the Philadelphia Eagles.

This is a huge disappointment for the Cowboys, who also lost receiver Miles Austin for at least two weeks. The pressure will really be on Marion Barber in the stretch to continue his 100-yard performances. He has too, really.

Damnn. I was looking forward to this guy coming back and now he's gone. I think he's the best rookie the Cowboys ever got this season.

Alonzo Coleman is on the practice squad..Choice is a good back up..Just needs few more carries..

I think Alonzo Coleman is on the practice squad. What about Keon Lattimore (Ray Lewis' little brother)? I wonder if he was picked up by anyone. Bottom line is, Big fat Wade is gonna have to play Tashard Choice. Why not? He seems like he does well in the limited time he sees up to this point.

NM.... I see the Broncos just picked up Bell earlier this month.  Tatum was selling cell phones in Denver.  Damnit.... he's from Dallas, why not sell phones in the DFW.....

Anyone know if Tatum Bell is still out there floating around?
They have to sign another RB don't they?  Anyone know if they have a RB on the practice squad?
