Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that Blue (heel) is expected to make "significant progress" in his recovery this week and could be available for Saturday's preseason game against the Ravens, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

During Thursday's practice, Blue suffered a bone bruise in his heel, an injury that kept him from suiting up for Dallas' exhibition opener against the Rams. It's encouraging, though, that the rookie fifth-round pick has a chance to get back on the field in time to log preseason action this weekend. He's competing with Javonte Williams, fellow rookie Phil Mafah and Miles Sanders (knee), the latter of whom also could return versus the Ravens, for touches in an unsettled backfield. Jon Machota of The Athletic reports that Williams remains in the lead for the No. 1 role, however.
