Cowboys news: Byron Jones activated off PUP list

Byron Jones was officially removed from the PUP list which means he could be on the field for the Cowboys’ opening week tilt versus the Giants.

Jones won’t participate in the preseason finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but should be available for Week 1 when the Cowboys host the New York Giants. That’s not just good news for the team, but definitely for Jones, who is entering a contract year and looking to prove his 2018 breakout was no fluke.

With his fifth-year contract option having been exercised, the Pro Bowl corner back is locked in through the 2019 season -- but nothing further -- and conversations regarding a potential extension haven’t yet gained any real traction.
