The Facts:
Jones was slated to be a backup in the Bears' first practice of training camp Thursday. As it turned out, he didn't take part in any drills because he was injured in unusual fashion -- while taking his physical. Jones strained his hamstring while running during the physical Thursday morning. "It was something where I ran this morning kind of early. I may not have stretched as much as I should have been. It was something that just happened. It could happen to anybody," Jones said.

As

was demoted off the first team, and Cedric Benson moved up to the No. 1 unit. ... More on Jones and Chicago's RBs as developments warrant (and they will).
