Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick left the practice field with blood gushing from his nose, but is expected to play a preseason game against Houston on Saturday night.

When Scandrick dived to block a pass Thursday afternoon, his helmet banged his nose hard enough to cause immediate bleeding from the inside. Once that stopped, there was bruising all around.

Head athletic trainer Jim Maurer said while it could be called a break, he considered it a bruise.
