Felix Jones Injury: Updates on Cowboys Star's Week 10 Status and Fantasy Value

The Dallas Cowboys have been waiting for the return of their star running back Felix Jones from a high ankle sprain that has kept him sidelined for the last three weeks.

The word out of Dallas is that he is questionable for the team’s Week 10 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

UPDATE: Sunday, Nov. 13 at 12:01 p.m. EST

As expected, Felix Jones (ankle) is inactive today against Buffalo, according to Rotoworld's Staff.

The Dallas Cowboys have been sending mixed signals about the health of Felix Jones, but they will remain committed to him no matter how well DeMarco Murray does because of the money they invested.

Columnist and TV analyst for Fox Sports Southwest Matt Mosley is reporting on Twitter:

I still think he will miss Week 10’s game, but when he does come back, the Cowboys will get pressure from Jerry Jones to infuse Felix Jones into the game plan.

Fantasy Impact

Enjoy it while it lasts folks, because the backfield in Dallas will be getting very complicated soon. With the imminent return of Felix Jones, the carries will have to be split up and the guessing game about who will get the bulk of the work will start to cascade over the team.

Who's the Backup?

In DeMarco Murray’s short time as the starting running back of the Dallas Cowboys, he has shown just how good he can be. When Jones comes back from his injury the two will split carries, but Murray will still be heavily involved.

Devastation Scale (2 out of 10)

The Dallas Cowboys have found an excellent replacement for Felix Jones during his injury in DeMarco Murray, but the two will be almost certainly splitting carries when Jones is healthy.
