Cowboys' Blake Jarwin: Dealing with high-ankle sprain

Jarwin is recovering from a high-ankle sprain, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. As a result, Jarwin missed practice Tuesday and Wednesday.

With the extent of Jarwin's ankle injury clarified, it's no surprise the tight end hasn't stepped foot on the practice field this week. He also may struggle to play through the sprain Saturday against the Rams, something that could be confirmed as early as Thursday, when the Cowboys release their final practice report ahead of the divisional-round matchup. If Jarwin doesn't suit up this weekend, fellow tight ends Dalton Schultz and Rico Gathers are poised to benefit.
