Activated from IR McKeon (anke) was activated from IR on Wednesday, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact McKeon was injured in a preseason game against the Cardinals and was placed on IR on Sept. 3. The second-year pro played 14 games last season with the Cowboys -- primarily on special teams -- and never made a reception. His return comes at an opportune time since backup tight end Blake Jarwin (hip) is questionable for the Cowboys' Week 9 contest against the Broncos.

Goes down with ankle sprain McKeon left Friday's game against the Cardinals with a high-ankle sprain, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact When McKeon left the game on Friday in a cart it was a sight that had many fearing the worst. With it now being diagnosed as an high-ankle sprain, a recovery time of four to six weeks should be expected. The second-year tight end was putting together a good training camp and might still have a chance to make the 53-man roster despite the injury.

Suffers ankle injury McKeon exited Friday's preseason game against the Cardinals due to an ankle injury, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact McKeon was impressing early in training camp and was putting together a strong case for a spot on the 53-man roster. The 23-year-old hauled in two of his four targets for 26 yards in last week's Hall of Fame Game against the Steelers before he secured his lone target for eight yards early in Friday's matchup. McKeon required a cart to get to the locker room after he left the game in the second quarter, and it's not yet clear how much time he'll miss due to the injury.

Slated for increased playing time Cowboys VP Stephen Jones said McKeon will need to step up following news that Blake Jarwin tore his ACL in Sunday's loss to the Rams, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jones also admitted that the team would check out the tight end market to find a potential replacement for Jarwin. Nevertheless, Dalton Schultz figures to be the main beneficiary while McKeon and Blake Bell rotate in. McKeon -- an undrafted rookie out of Michigan -- was a healthy scratch in the season opener, and he'll likely stick to a run-blocking role if he gets the call.
