Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.

Dez Bryant suffered an ankle injury in the second half of the Cowboys’ matchup against the Chiefs on Sunday. The team announced that Bryant was questionable to return.

Bryant tried to walk it off on the sideline. He ended up leaving the field in the fourth quarter and was taken to the locker room to be evaluated.

The injury occurred when a Chiefs player rolled Bryant’s ankle underneath his body on a play.

Bryant is the Cowboys’ top receiver this year, with 366 yards and four touchdowns on 32 catches.

Before the injury, Bryant had six catches for 73 yards. Terrance Williams is the team’s leading receiver against the Chiefs with eight catches on eight targets for 135 yards. It’s not ideal for the Cowboys to be missing Bryant on the field, but they should be able to get by for this game, at least.
