RVING, Texas - The votes have been tabulated, and they are no different than they were at this time last Friday.
Felix Jones once again is the Diet Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week, now having won the award in consecutive weeks following his performance in the Cowboys' 27-16 victory over the Green Bay Packers on the Sunday night football telecast.
The Cowboys rookie running back won the award in Week Two based mostly on his kickoff return performance against the Philadelphia Eagles. He returned six kicks for a franchise record 247 yards, including a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown.
But this time Jones grabbed the honors based on his rushing performance, electrifying the Lambeau Field and prime-time television audience with his 60-yard touchdown run to erase a 6-3 Green Bay lead and vault the Cowboys ahead for good. Jones finished the game rushing for 76 yards on six carries, making him the Cowboys' only rookie to score touchdowns in his first three NFL games.
Jones, selected by voters on NFL.com and Sprint Wireless, beat out four other finalists, including Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco, Miami defensive end Phillip Merling, Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan and Houston running back Steve Slaton.
At the completion of the regular season, five players will be nominated for Diet Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Year honors, to be voted upon by the fans. Jones certainly has a good start to grab one of those five spots since Denver wide receiver Eddie Royal is the only other rookie so far to win the award.
