CARROLLTON, Texas -- Maybe the Cowboys won't need Adam (Pacman) Jones back in the secondary after all.

The biggest playmakers at organized team activities Tuesday were a pair of low-profile, third-year defensive backs: cornerback Alan Ball and safety Courtney Brown. Ball had an interception and each player had a couple of deflections, earning praise from teammates and coach Wade Phillips.

The performances came one day after the team backtracked on owner Jerry Jones' comment that he was considering a reunion with Jones, the cornerback released following a troubled 2008 that included a fight with a team bodyguard and a six-game suspension.

The team has been practising at a high school stadium since the collapse of its practice facility last month.
