Ronald Jones Fantasy

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.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ronald Jones (groin) returned to training camp practice on Tuesday, suggesting that he could make his preseason debut this Saturday in the team's preseason finale against the Las Vegas Raiders. It's been a bad summer for Jones, who has missed valuable time with a groin injury while also being suspended for the first two games of the 2023 season for performance-enhancing drugs. When he's healthy and back from his suspension in Week 3, he'll be battling Rico Dowdle, impressive rookie Deuce Vaughn and Malik Davis for backup work behind starter Tony Pollard in Dallas' backfield. Jones should be off the fantasy radar in most upcoming drafts.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ronald Jones (groin) is not practicing on Tuesday and is likely to miss the team's preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday. It's a tough development for Jones after he was handed a two-game suspension for violating the NFL's PED policy. The Cowboys listed the two-time Super Bowl Champion behind Tony Pollard, Rico Dowdle, and Malik Davis on its initial depth chart, so his chances to make the 53-man roster could be dwindling. Jones was a healthy scratch for the Kansas City Chiefs last season on many occasions and his career outlook is looking bleak.
