The Facts:
As obvious as it appears that free-agent addition Jones is the one to replace Shaun Alexander, HC Mike Holmgren reiterated that Jones and incumbent backup Maurice Morris will share the duties. "I'm looking at it right now as if we have two starters at that position," Holmgren said. "That's how I talk to the players about it and that's how I'm going to kind of approach it during the season."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Post-Intelligencer beat writer Clare Farnsworth, Holmgren's approach is rooted in trying to keep both players healthy, since neither is as big as Alexander. "In this day and age, you want to be the man," Holmgren acknowledged. "(But) it will certainly help our team if I can keep them both fresh and somewhat healthy through the course of the season by doing it this way. ..." Positives here? Holmgren's approach is doing wonders for Jones' draft value.
