Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Jones has missed the last four games after suffering a left high ankle sprain midway through the second quarter of the Cowboys' Oct. 16 loss at New England. Jerry Jones said Felix Jones won't return kickoffs when he returns from injury. In Jones' place, rookie DeMarco Murray has rushed for 601 yards over the last four games. Worth noting: Jerry Jones alluded to Murray getting the bulk of the carries for the first time. "One thing that comes to my mind that Murray looks like the more he carries the more effective he gets. If you think of that theoretically about a workhorse running back that they get better as the game goes along," Jerry Jones said. "Felix, and this is not negative in any way, Felix has always been a guy that he looks like the best way for him to be his best is to inject him in spots and so we may have a guy here in Murray who can carry a lot of carries and we may have a guy in Felix that can step in there and carry it 13 times a ballgame and really have a chance to break it."
