Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue is set to finally make his NFL debut on Sunday against the New York Jets but the highly anticipated debut was nearly derailed this week after a questionable cleat choice turned into a painful injury.
Blue, a fifth round pick by the Cowboys, broke out blue Nike Louis Vuitton cleats during practice on Thursday and while they look very good on him, they didn’t feel good after a while as they caused him to get blisters.
Blue, a 2025 fifth-round draft pick, will likely get his chance to play with running back Miles Sanders and kick returner/wide receiver KaVontae Turpin missing practice this week. After having been a healthy scratch for the opening four games, the Texas product is expected to be an option for the Cowboys on Sunday.
