"Cowboys RB Felix Jones will miss Week 4 at Denver with a sprained PCL, reports ESPN. Head coach Wade Phillips said Tuesday that there is not a timetable for his return, but the report stats Jones might miss Week 5 as well so that he'll have three weeks of rest heading into Week 7 (the Cowboys have a bye in Week 6). Phillips did say Tuesday that RB Marion Barber is getting better but wouldn't commit to him playing against the Broncos. Jones rushed for 94 yards on eight carries and caught one pass for 20 yards against the Panthers in Week 3 before leaving in the third quarter (Sportsline)."
There is no word yet if Barber will be able to play, but if you need a running back in fantasy football pickup Tashard Choice. He could be the Cowboys' every down running back, which makes him a potential fantasy stud vs Denver. I like Felix Jones a lot, but he just can't say on the field, and I just don't see how he could ever be a primary back. He wasn't one in college and so far hasn't showed he can do it in the NFL.
