Dez Bryant broke out as a star for the Dallas Cowboys last season. He's also stayed out of trouble in recent months, a positive development you know Jerry Jones and Co. aren't taking for granted.
Still, Bryant has found his way into the news. Two weeks ago, he caused a stir when he said he could become the first player in NFL history to finish with 2,000 yards receiving in a single season.
In a Tuesday radio interview, Bryant explained that "the greatest thing about being on the Cowboys (is) people love to hate the Cowboys."
Between the morning and the afternoon, something appears to have irked the playmaker.
We'll see if Bryant is able to keep his word. If he believes cutting back his availability will bring a close to dumb things being said about him, he's mistaken. As Omar Little once said, it's "all in the game."
