Dallas Cowboys' rookie RB Jaydon Blue will not play in the Cowboys' season opener on Thursday in Philadelphia.

Blue has been dealing with a Grade 2 ankle sprain, but was not listed on the injury report.

He is a healthy scratch in what would have been his NFL debut.

The Cowboys will start Javonte Williams, with veteran Miles Sanders acting as the No. 2 back.
