Ronald Jones News
Monday, September 18, 7:43 PM
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.

Josh Jacobs News
Tuesday, August 11, 9:57 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs remains one of the players who could face discipline from the NFL, according to Adam Schefter. Jacobs was arrested in May following an alleged domestic incident in Wisconsin and was released the next day while prosecutors requested additional investigation before making a formal charging decision. Jacobs has denied wrongdoing through his attorneys. No punishment has been announced by the league, so there is no reason yet to guess at how much time he might miss. It is worth following for fantasy purposes, though. Jacobs ran for 929 yards and 13 touchdowns in 15 games last season while catching 36 passes for 282 yards and another score. He is also currently sidelined with a groin injury that will keep him out at least this week. MarShawn Lloyd has gotten first-team work with Jacobs sidelined, though Green Bay's unofficial depth chart currently has Chris Brooks ahead of Lloyd. If Jacobs eventually misses regular-season games, that backup battle would suddenly become much more important.
