A familiar face in Dallas' secondary: After serving a six-game suspension for violating the league's player conduct policy, cornerback Adam Jones was added to the Cowboys' 53-man roster Tuesday and will be eligible to play Sunday.

The NFL's sack leader:DeMarcus Ware tied a career-high with three sacks last week vs. the Seahawks but left the game in the third quarter because of a hyperextended left knee. An MRI exam revealed no significant damage and coach Wade Phillips expects Ware to participate in practice.
The goal-line punch: With Willie Parker still nursing a knee injury, Mewelde Moore has helped carry the load and has kept the running game going. But in goal-line situations, the Steelers have effectively used running back Gary Russell. He has muscled his way into the end zone in each of the last two games.
