Rookie RB Felix Jones has been placed on the injured reserve and will have surgery to repair a torn ligament underneath his left big toe.

A date has yet to be set for the operation, which will be performed by Dr. Robert Anderson, a foot and ankle specialist in Charlotte, N.C.

Jones, the No. 22 overall pick in the draft, provided a big-play complement to Marion Barber and showed flashes of brilliance in his six games. He had 266 yards on 30 carries (8.9 yards per carry) and scored four touchdowns, including a kickoff return.

Jones suffered a partially torn hamstring on a 14-yard run in the loss to the Cardinals and hasn't played since. He suffered the toe injury while rehabbing his hamstring.

The Cowboys' medical staff, with input from Dr. Anderson, determined that the best option for Jones' long-term future would be to have season-ending surgery on the toe.

Felix To Have Toe Surgery; Done For Season
Posted by rphillips at 11/20/2008 1:28 PM CST on truebluefanclub.com

The Cowboys’ worst fears about Felix Jones’ toe injury have been confirmed: The dynamic rookie running back will undergo surgery to repair a torn ligament beneath his left big toe and will miss the remainder of the season.


Jones suffered the injury while rehabbing his partially-torn hamstring. He went through light individual drills in practice Wednesday while the team tried to determine his physical limitations.


Additional tests taken Monday were evaluated this morning by Dr. Robert Anderson, a foot and ankle specialist based in Charlotte. The Cowboys’ medical staff, with input from Dr. Anderson, decided surgery was the best option for Jones’ long-term health.


Much more to come.
