The Facts:
The Bears wrapped up their first week of practice with Jones still on the sideline because of a pulled right hamstring. Jones was injured while running in a physical before the first practice of camp last Thursday, and he probably will be out another seven to 10 days.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
That will give Cedric Benson more time to show what he can do, although he seems to believe he's show plenty: "It sure does seem it's my job to lose right now," Benson said Wednesday. ... But as Sun-Times staffer Mike Mulligan noted, nothing has been said, the job hasn't officially been handed to Benson, who has put the ball on the ground a few times in camp. Lovie Smith won't tolerate fumbling during a game. Jones protects the ball well, and there isn't a rush to get him back on the field because everyone knows what he can do.
