Rams coach Jeff Fisher says Tavon Austin has mild knee sprain, could play Sunday

St. Louis Rams wide receiver Tavon Austin might be back earlier than expected.

Austin left Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a knee injury, but Rams head coach Jeff Fisher confirmed that the 23-year-old speedster's knee sprain was "mild."

Fisher hasn't ruled out Austin for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Initial reports indicated that Austin could be out for two weeks.
