The Dallas Cowboys will have the services of both wide receiver Roy Williams and running back Felix Jones this afternoon, as both of them are active against the Atlanta Falcons.
Jones was listed as probable with a knee injury, while Williams was listed as probable with a rib injury, so both of them were expected to play. But Cowboys coach Wade Phillips said during the week that he was concerned about Williams, who has been experiencing pain in the ribs when he reaches for passes -- which is a somewhat important part of playing wide receiver.
The Falcons will be without running back Jerious Norwood, who had been listed as doubtful with a hip injury. Michael Turner will start at running back for the Falcons, and Jason Snelling will back him up.
The full list of inactives for the Falcons-Cowboys game is at NFL.com.

Roy who?
Neither one will last the game. One good shot on either one, and they'll be whining getting pine splinters in their butt!
MILES AUSTIN!!!!!!
Who cares if roy plays??? Miles is BALLING.
Remember when all you haters called him a one hit wonder? Kid is killing the falcons right about now. Or should I say Romo is killing them. What a pass play right before the half for the TD. Anyone who says romo sucks or that he's a backup clearly doesnt watch/know football.
Saying that is equal to putting a sign on your back that says "I'm a retard"
halftime stats- 2 TD's 13-17 for 185 passing.
Can you say "Balling" ?
Miles strikes again.....is this still the chiefs game?
Roy is active, but he's not actually doing anything. Ok, he did have a penalty. Nice trade Jerry.
