That's unfortunate. But you can still pinch out that shoot and pot it into some compost, water well regularly and see how it does. You've nothing to lose.
Keep that potato going for the rest of the year and you'll be ready for next season in case the little sprout doesn't take. I kept mine going and it will last about 3 yrs before it totally gives up. December is the best time to start new sweet potatoes for shoots.
