It had been previously reported that the Cowboys and Bryant were planning to meet Friday in order to determine their future. If Bryant truly wants revenge, he can surely sign with a team who can give him that opportunity.
If Bryant were still producing like the wide receiver who earned a $70 million contract, he wouldn’t be going anywhere.
For that to happen, Bryant would need to join another team in the NFC East – the New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles or Washington Redskins.
Bryant is meeting with owner and general manager Jerry Jones, ESPN reports.
Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (90) on the sideline in the fourth quarter against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Later in 2010, during training camp, Bryant shined a light on National Football League rookie hazing when he refused to carry Cowboys veteran wide receiver Roy Williams’ pads after practice.
In his eight seasons, Dez has eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark three times – in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Bryant, 29, has been considered a possible candidate for a pay cut or release this offseason, as he is due $12.5 million in salary in 2018 and is set to count $16.5 million against the Cowboys’ cap.
Bryant even retweeted a tweet that suggested he would explore signing with one of Dallas’ rivals.
Bryant is the franchise leader with 73 touchdown catches, ahead of Hall of Fame receivers Bob Hayes (71) and Michael Irvin (65).
The Cardinals have about $20 million in cap space, according to Sportrac.
Bryant’s best years are behind him, but if his middle-fingers-in-the-air exit from Dallas is any indication, we’re still in store to see his most savage.
He finished the 2017 with 69 catches, 838 yards and six touchdowns, but dropped the second-most passes (9) in the NFL.
The Cowboys left little doubt they were in the market for receivers in free agency, adding Allen Hurns after the four-year pro was released by Jacksonville.
