NFL's review
of 'Pacman' scuffle not completed
IRVING, Texas
(AP) - The NFL's review of Adam "Pacman" Jones' scuffle
with his bodyguard won't be completed until next week.
The Dallas Cowboys
had already said they won't discipline Jones, so that means the
cornerback will play Sunday at Arizona.
NFL spokesman
Greg Aiello said in an e-mail Friday that the league's review
won't be completed until next week. He didn't provide a specific
time.
It is unclear
if the league will take any punitive action against Jones, who
only six weeks ago was fully reinstated by NFL commissioner Roger
Goodell from a 17-month suspension, including the entire 2007
season, that followed a series of off-field problems.
Jones got into
a scuffle at an upscale downtown Dallas hotel late Tuesday night
with one of members of a security detail provided by the team
to be with the cornerback at all times.
Cowboys owner
Jerry Jones said the player broke no team rules, but said he
was disappointed about the incident.
Adam Jones has
started all five games for the Cowboys, and likely will start
Sunday.
The Cowboys confirmed
Friday that cornerback Terence Newman (abdominal strain) will
miss his second straight game. Safety Roy Williams (fractured
forearm), who returned to practice after missing three games,
still will not play and safety Patrick Watkins (neck) is also
out.
