Good news for Jaydon Blue, the rookie running back of the Dallas Cowboys , who had been sidelined for nearly two weeks with a heel bruise but has now been cleared to play. He is set to make his preseason debut Friday night against the Atlanta Falcons. With the regular-season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles on September 4, his return comes at the perfect time.
Blue suffered the injury during an August 7 practice in Oxnard when a teammate stepped on his foot, keeping him out of practices and preseason games. On Tuesday, he was a full participant in practice and didn’t hesitate to confirm his availability.
“I'm feeling great. I feel like I'm back to myself. I had to sit for the past two weeks. I'm just ready to get on the field and be able to play against a different team.”
