With running back Felix Jones listed as questionable for the Eagles game with a hamstring injury, Chauncey Washington was signed to the active roster from the practice squad.
Washington was needed for depth purposes. Jones has not practiced all week and his primary backup is 12-year veteran Sammy Morris who has been with the team less than two weeks.
Washington signed to the Cowboys practice squad on November 30, 2011. He was originally drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the seventh round (213th overall) of the 2008 NFL Draft out of USC.
He played in six games with the Jaguars as a rookie carrying the ball four times for nine yards and adding one catch for nine yards. He spent most of the 2009 season with the Dallas Cowboys bouncing between their practice squad and active roster – seeing action in two games.
In 2010, he was on the N.Y. Jets practice squad until signing with the St. Louis Rams on September 28, where he appeared in one game before being added to their practice squad. He was released by St. Louis on August 4, 2011.
The club released guard Daniel Loper. Loper was inactive for seven games this season with Dallas.

Felix should be traded during the off season, he just cannot stay healthy and was a wasted 1st round pick. If Morris and who ever else is the RB can not total around 100 yards and Tony has to throw 30/40 ttimes this just may be a very long after noon for the cows. If they do not win today they finish 8/8.

As much as I love the Cowboys, I just don't believe they will win today. ONLY because of the injuries at at running back position. Felix is injured again, nothing new however. This is really going to get worse as Jones is not a durable back. This does not mean he is a bad runner, just means Dallas either reduces his PAY and or they look for the solution in the draft in later rounds, as they did with Murray. Dallas will/should draft cornerback with its first round pick. Maybe Trade Felix for draft choices who knows but Felixis not the answer. Murray seemed to be durable as his injury was caused by someone falling on him.
Any way I hope for the best and expect the worse.
