Backup center Bill Nagy left the field Monday after suffering an left ankle injury, and X-Rays later confirmed that he suffered a high-ankle sprain, according to the Cowboys official team site.
Nagy was placed on injured reserve last season after breaking the same ankle following four starts at left guard as a rookie. The injury typically takes 2-4 weeks for a return, but can linger for a long period of time. He was expected to get an MRI later Tuesday.
