Receiver Dez Bryant and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had a brief meeting on Friday. The meeting resulted in the release of Bryant.
The speculation is over and the highly overrated 29 year oldreciever is now a free agent. Not exactly a surprise move by Dallas, given Dez’s age and his lack of production.
It was a short meeting between #Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and Dez Bryant. After months speculation, Bryant was released and a marquee 29-year old free agent is on the market midway through April with several WR needy teams.

Dez doesn’t seem to have been caught off guard by the move and responded on Twitter that he was “unbothered.” It also appears that he will still be throwing up the X in his new home.

It should be interesting to see where the former number one option lands and whether or not he will accept a role other than the number one.
