Dallas Cowboys: Can Darius Jackson win the third running back job?

For the Dallas Cowboys, running back is possibly their deepest position on the roster. When you have arguably the best running back in football Ezekiel Elliott headlining your runner’s, things are going to shape up pretty well.

Backup running back Rod Smith also is a very solid player, who could be a starter for about four to five NFL teams. But once you get past the top two big names, there is an intriguing battle going on this preseason for the third running back spot.

Third-year man Darius Jackson and rookie Bo Scarbrough are battling it out to see who will make the roster as the third back.
