Felix Jones has high-ankle sprain

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones revealed after Sunday's game that RB Felix Jones has been diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain.  It explains why he wasn't allowed to re-enter the game.  High-ankle sprains are usually 4-6 week deals for RBs, so owners need to prepare to be without Jones until late-November.  In the meantime, RB DeMarco Murray looks like the favorite to take over as Dallas' lead back.  He led the team with 10 carries on Sunday, although he managed only 32 yards.  RB Tashard Choice wasn't any better, though, taking his 5 totes for just 14 yards.  Both guys will see action moving forward, but look for Murray to lead the way.  A candidate for 15 touches per game on an explosive offense, he's worth adding in all leagues.  Choice is more of a deep league option.
