"The rookie is hopeful to be ready for Week 1," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Blue got hurt in a recent team game, Fowler said. Dallas finished the preseason with a 1-2 record. Blue was drafted in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
"Just the versatility I bring, man," Blue recently said when asked why the team should count on him, per NFL.com. "I could do multiple things, whether its special teams running the ball out of the backfield, catching passes, and just having that explosion of that can break at any moment."
Blue doesn't think his ankle injury is serious.

"It was the same ankle just got rolled up a little bit, but I don't think it's nothing serious," Blue said. "I've had ankle rolls plenty of times, but I feel good right now."
