Blue (coach's decision) isn't active for Sunday's battle against the Bears, Garrett Podell of CBS Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue has now been a healthy scratch in each of Dallas' first three games of the campaign. Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders will again be the team's two active RBs in Week 3.

Blue (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie fifth-round draft pick will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL debut, as Dallas will proceed with Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders as its lone active running backs for the second straight game. Though Williams looks to be locked in as Dallas' lead back after producing two touchdowns and 64 total yards on 17 touches in the Week 1 loss to the Eagles, Blue could eventually unseat Sanders -- who committed a costly fumble in the opener -- for the No. 2 role as the season unfolds.

Blue (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Thursday's game at Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Blue emerged from the Cowboys' preseason finale with a low-ankle sprain, but it wasn't serious enough to cause the team to list him on its Week 1 injury report. Nonetheless, his pro debut will be delayed until at least Week 2 against the Giants on Sunday, Sept. 14, while Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders handle the backfield work Thursday.

Blue (ankle) wasn't listed on the Cowboys' practice report Monday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue didn't suit up for Dallas' first two preseason games due to a bruised heel before returning to action Aug. 22 versus the Falcons, a contest in which he suffered a low right ankle sprain. With his health not in question this week, though, he'll be available alongside Miles Sanders (shoulder) to a backfield that's led by Javonte Williams.

Blue (ankle) is participating in practice Monday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Cowboys are only going through light practice reps Monday, according to Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News, but it's nonetheless encouraging to see Blue already back on the practice field after he suffered a low-ankle sprain during Friday's preseason win over the Falcons. The rookie fifth-round pick has roughly two weeks remaining to get cleared for Week 1. A heel injury forced Blue to miss Dallas' first two preseason games, and when he's fully healthy he's expected to begin his career alongside veteran Miles Sanders in a depth role behind Javonte Williams.

Blue suffered a low-ankle sprain in Friday's preseason win over Atlanta, though he's hopeful to be able to play Week 1, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.comreports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue suggested after the exhibition contest that he wasn't worried about the injury, but the diagnosis of a sprain casts at least some doubt about his availability for the regular-season opener. The rookie out of Texas is slated to be part of a Dallas backfield that also includes veterans Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders (shoulder), though with both Sanders and Blue currently dealing with injuries, the Cowboys may need to call upon Deuce Vaughn, Phil Mafah and/or Malik Davis for some early-season work.

Blue said after Friday's preseason win over the Falcons that he wasn't concerned about the ankle injury that forced him from the game early, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. "I've had ankles rolled plenty of times," Blue said. "I feel good right now."

EDGE Analysis

The 2025 fifth-round pick is competing for a spot on the Cowboys' initial 53-man roster in a very unsettled backfield that figures to have former Bronco Javonte Williams as its Week 1 starter. Blue has had trouble staying healthy during training camp and the preseason, which isn't an encouraging sign for the somewhat undersized (5-foot-9, 196 pounds) running back, but he's likely shown enough to begin the season in a depth role alongside veteran Miles Sanders.

Blue won't return to Friday's preseason game versus the Falcons due to a right ankle injury, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue hauled in a screen pass from QB Will Grier early in the fourth quarter and took it six yards before getting tackled, He then stayed down, made his way to the sideline under his own power and then went in the blue medical tent to be evaluated. Not longer afterward, the rookie fifth-rounder was ruled out. Blue has been competing for a role in a Cowboys backfield that also includes Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders, both of whom were DNPs on Friday.

Blue left the field with an apparent lower-leg injury during Friday's preseason game against the Falcons, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue remained on the turf after a six-yard catch early in the fourth quarter, and after making his way to the sideline under his own power, he was looked at by trainers before visiting the medical tent. The rookie fifth-round pick is vying for a role in a Cowboys backfield that's also occupied by Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders, both of whom sat out Friday.

Blue (heel) participated in Tuesday's training camp practice, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blue missed the Cowboys' first two preseason games while recovering from a bruised heel, but his participation in team drills during Tuesday's practice indicates that he is making progress toward being available for Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons. The rookie fifth-round pick saw some work with the first-team offense prior to his injury, and once he's fully healthy, he'll have the opportunity to compete against Miles Sanders and Javonte Williams for snaps out of the backfield.
