One of the poster boys of Roger Goodell's crackdown on off-the-field incidents is apparently in trouble again.

Per Calvin Watkins at The Dallas Morning News:

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones got into an altercation with one of his security guards at the Joule Hotel in downtown Dallas on Wednesday morning, according to Dallas Deputy Chief Vince Golbeck, who is a commander of the central patrol division.

Jones was having dinner at the hotel when a dispute occurred. Chief Golbeck said he believed Jones was staying at the hotel and may have been drinking.

This does not bode well for the guy who claimed that he had reformed himself and become a bigger, better man. Then again, this might be nothing blown out of proportion into something because of the man involved.

Does Goodell crack down on him again? Or is this too small of an issue to matter?

Interesting times we live in here in the D/FW sports sphere.

UPDATE 9:49 CST: Rather than start a new thread, I figured I would just add onto this one.

ESPN's Ed Werder is reporting that Terence Newman has a sports hernia and may need surgery.

Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl cornerback Terence Newman has been diagnosed with a sports hernia injury and the team has forwarded results of his medical tests to a Philadelphia specialist for confirmation before determining whether surgery is necessary, according to a source close to the player. <!-- INLINE HEADSHOT (BEGIN) -->

A Cowboys source said Newman would have the surgery immediately if the sports hernia injury is confirmed and would be out a minimum of six weeks. Newman will miss his third game of the season Sunday when the Cowboys play the Arizona Cardinals.

At the request of Newman and his agent, the Cowboys have sent the player's MRI results and other information to Dr. William Meyers, who performed surgery on Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb to repair a sports hernia injury. NBA player Grant Hill, whose father Calvin works for the Cowboys, is another professional athlete Meyers has treated for the injury.

Two stories about the Cowboys secondary, two pieces of (potentially) bad news.
