The Facts:
Jones has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Dolphins. Jones suffered an ankle injury against the Cardinals and the Lions are concerned that it might be a high ankle sprain which could keep Jones sidelined for a couple of weeks. The Lions are expected to give a more definitive report on Jones' status later today.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Arlen Harris and Aveion Cason, who both joined the team in recent weeks, will share time at running back in Jones' absence. The Lions are already without their top two backups -- Shawn Bryson and Brian Calhoun -- who are on injured reserve with knee injuries.
