Cowboys news: Deuce Vaughn, Rico Dowdle among those to benefit from Ronald Jones suspension

For the first time in a long time, the Cowboys have playing time available at RB, and plenty of young players ready to claim it.

OXNARD, Calif. — Another day has passed and the running back picture behind Tony Pollard has somehow gotten even murkier with the suspension of Ronald Jones.

However, the group behind Pollard – which includes Malik Davis, Rico Dowdle, Jones, Deuce Vaughn and Hunter Luepke – has competed fiercely through one week of camp and they brought the physicality on day one in pads on Monday.

Despite uncertainty still following the group, head coach Mike McCarthy took the time on

Monday morning to give praise to two young guys in the room that have taken a step forward so far in training camp.
