NSW hierarchy played down the scare and expected Haas to train when the Blues return to camp on Sunday afternoon.
Haas rolled his ankle before a Christmas at a Broncos training session.
“He trod on the boot of someone as he was running backwards, and he’s gone over in his ankle, ″ Blues adviser Greg Alexander said.
“It’s a slight sprain. He’ll ice and elevate it and be right to train on Sunday.”
Alexander said there had been no thought to sending an SOS to any other front-rowers.
Haas is widely regarded as the best prop in rugby league.
