Colombo also has a fracture on his fibula near his left knee that doesn't need surgery. Cowboys officials said the recovery time for the fibula injury is six weeks.

Recovery time for the ankle has not been determined, and owner and general manager Jerry Jones had said Colombo is out for the season.

The Cowboys are hopeful Colombo can return at some point, especially if the team makes a deep playoff run.
