Dallas rookie wide receiver Dez Bryant will play Sunday against the Vikings at Mall of America Field despite suffering from a high ankle sprain, according to Michael Lombardi of the NFL Network.

The 6-2, 217-pound Bryant did not practice at all this week and is listed as questionable for the game. He has 17 receptions for 180 yards and has returned a punt for a touchdown this season. Bryant, the 24th overall pick in the first round of the draft last April, missed the entire exhibition season after injury the ankle in late July.
