Felix Gets NFL Rookie Honor

Posted by rphillips at 9/19/2008 11:49 AM CDT on truebluefanclub.com

[FONT=verdana,geneva]Not a bad week for first-round pick Felix Jones. First he's the NFL Special Teams Player of the Week; now he's been voted the Week 2 Diet Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week. Gotta throw in the sponsor, too.[/FONT]

Jones' six kickoff returns for 247 yards against the Eagles, including a 98-yard touchdown, beat out Commanders safety Chris Horton, Titans running back Chris Johnson, Raiders running back Darren McFadden and Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart.

With fullback Deon Anderson recovering from a knee scope, might Felix Jones get more offensive touches against Green Bay? He had just three carries for 10 yards Monday night, but perhaps the Cowboys will try some of those two-back sets with Marion Barber.

Wow, congratz to Felix... McFadden had a pretty good day though, and on a crap team.
