The Dallas Cowboys released running back Ronald Jones on Monday, the team announced. Jones was eligible to return to the active 53-man roster on Monday after serving a two-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy, but the Cowboys have opted to go in another direction. The 26-year-old will now be hoping to latch on with another organization to provide some backfield depth. Tony Pollard is the team's clear-cut starter, with Rico Dowdle and rookies Deuce Vaughn and Hunter Luepke backing him up in the running back room. Jones shouldn't be rostered in single-year fantasy leagues right now.

New York Jets running back Israel Abanikanda (thigh) turned four carries into 30 yards and one reception into one yard before sustaining a leg injury in the team's preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Abanikanda went down in the fourth quarter and was subsequently carted to the locker room. The severity of the injury is currently unknown, but the rookie appeared to be unable to put weight on his right leg. The 20-year-old had looked impressive to this point in the preseason, but his status is very much in question for next week's showdown with the New York Giants.
