Adam Jones to have multiple roles on Sunday
IRVING, Texas -- Adam "Pacman" Jones will be eligible to play Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers after his six-game suspension, and Dallas Cowboys coach Wade Phillips said he'll also use his cornerback to return punts.
Jones has already returned to practice, but the Cowboys still have a roster exemption and do not yet have to put him on their 53-man roster.
In his Monday meeting with the media, Phillips said Jones will return punts and play in defensive sub-packages. Despite not playing in a game since Oct. 12, the coach said Jones returned to the team in good shape.

I found this interesting
According to the newspaper, rookie Orlando Scandrick will lose most of his playing time now that Jones is back.

hmm Really..
With no Jenkins you would think that wouldn’t happen…
Hopefully Scandrick can take one back on KR.

I think they are a little off....
Scandrick won’t lose his nickel spot to someone that hasn’t played in 6 weeks. Newman, Henry, Scandrick will be the starting three with Pacman playing special teams and sub packages.
Look up... get up...Don't ever, ever give up!!

i'd rather have...
newman, pacman and scandrick in the slot… with henry eyeing up zack miller, he’s a good tight end and we need to have a cb on him bc he will be targeted heavily, esp in this weather… i’ll take pac over henry starting right corner any day of the week, even after 6 weeks off

Double!
The odds that we’re flagged for an illegal block in the back during a punt return?
