The Cowboys reportedly believe Chris Jones has a chance to be a "special" punter.
Dallas signed Jones to a three-year deal upon promoting him from the practice squad late in the season. The inference is that free agent Mat McBriar, coming off surgery to remove a cyst in his leg, may have lost his job for good.

Cowboys promoted P Chris Jones from the practice squad.
On the roster for two games earlier this year, the rookie out of Carson-Newman will handle punting duties for the Cowboys' most important game of the season after Mat McBriar landed on injured reserve Saturday.

Cowboys waived P Chris Jones.
It's a sign that Mat McBriar has recovered enough from nerve damage in his left foot to handle punting chores in Week 11. Jones averaged 43 yards on three punts against the Seahawks two weeks ago.

The Cowboys activated punter Chris Jones from their practice squad on Saturday.
Starting punter Mat McBriar (questionable) suffered a left foot injury in last week's game against the Eagles, and the Cowboys do not want to risk having Dan Bailey handling punting duties again.
