DeMarco Murray is expected to continue to serve as the primary tailback for the Dallas Cowboys, but will he be the starter this week against the Washington Redskins? That's a question yet to be answered.

Felix Jones, who was the team's lead ball carrier at the outset of the season, is expected to return to action after missing the last four games while recovering from a left-ankle sprain he suffered in the Cowboys' 20-16 loss at New England on Oct. 16.
