Title: Cowboys release WR Dez Bryant
Post by: txradioguy on April 13, 2018, 04:56:14 pm
The Dallas Cowboys have released wide receiver Dez Bryant on Friday, a source told ESPN's Todd Archer.

A source said Bryant, who met with owner and general manager Jerry Jones, was not offered a pay cut. Another source added Bryant will not be designated a post-June 1 cut.

Bryant was informed of his release after arriving at The Star -- the team's headquarters in Frisco, Texas.
The Cowboys will save $8 million against the cap this season with the move.

Bryant's future has been the biggest topic of the Cowboys' offseason, with his $12.5 million base salary and $16.5 million salary-cap figure.

Since signing a five-year, $70 million contract in 2015, Bryant, 29, has not recorded more than 69 catches or 838 yards in a season. He missed time in 2015 with a broken foot and was bothered in 2016 with a tibial plateau fracture.

One of the reporters waiting outside Cowboys HQ quoted him as saying "I'll see you guys twice a year".

I was hoping he wouldn't go to an NFC East team.

Or the Patriots.

Now it's time for the rest of our receiving corps to step their game up a notch.  It will be interesting to see how Switzer will be utilized this eyar.
