PHILLIP TANNER RUMORS
Cowboys RB Felix Jones Returns To Practice; RB Phillip Tanner Working With First Team
Felix Jones returned to practice Thursday despite his bruised knee, but he wasn't the only Dallas Cowboys running back to take reps with the first team.
Phillip Tanner also has received a lot of work this week with the starters, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, including on Wednesday, when Jones was out of practice. Jones is cautiously expected to start against the...
Cowboys RB's Felix Jones, Phillip Tanner May Split Time At Tailback
The Cowboys haven't always split time with their starting tailback, but with DeMarco Murray likely out this week with a sprained foot, this could be an opportunity to get more than one back involved.
Felix Jones received more carries last week in Murray's second-half absence, but the Cowboys are also getting second-year pro Phillip Tanner some snaps this week in practice...
Cowboys RB Phillip Tanner, WR Saalim Hakim Sidelined With Hand Injuries
Backup running back Phillip Tanner broke a bone in his right hand in special teams practice on Friday and is going back to Dallas for surgery. Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said Tanner could be back in action in 1-2 weeks. Well see how the surgery goes and just see where he is, Garrett said.

Tanner Makes Most Of Playing Time Against Rams
Lost to some degree in DeMarco Murray’s record-breaking performance on Sunday, though rightfully so, will be the contributions of Phillip Tanner, the undrafted running back with local ties. A graduate of Kimball High School in Dallas, Tanner finally got a chance to run on Sunday, with Felix Jones out, Tashard Choice suffering from fumble-itis and Murray in need of some rest after...
