Irving, Texas ? Terrell Owens was still limping Monday on his sprained left ankle, and his status for the Dallas Cowboys’ playoff game next weekend was uncertain, though some teammates expect him to play.

“Absolutely, we’re all counting on him playing,” Jason Witten said.

Coach Wade Philllips said Owens was limited in a light workout Monday, the first for the top-seeded Cowboys (13-3) since learning they will play the New York Giants in the NFC divisional playoffs Sunday – and the first for T.O. since he sustained a high ankle sprain Dec. 22 at Carolina.
