Dez Bryant was seemingly retired after many years as the top wide receiver on the Dallas Cowboys coming into the 2020 season. Bryant remains the Cowboys franchise leader in catching touchdowns but felt he had more to prove. He found another NFL chance with the Baltimore Ravens this season. Dez was looking forward to playing against the Cowboys on Tuesday night, but was ruled out after testing positive for COVID-19 moments before kickoff.

After Dez Bryant was cut by the Dallas Cowboys, it look him a while to find his way back to the NFL. Due to injuries, and general decline in production, Dez Bryant had not played since 2017. That was, until his three games with the Baltimore Ravens.
In those games Dez Bryant caught just four passes for 28 yards.
The fact that this game is even being played tonight raises major questions about the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols. Dez Bryant was warming up on the field with all of his teammates and shaking hands with opponents when the word came out that he tested positive for COVID-19. You would think he had close contact with many people. I guess Roger Gooddell’s show goes on. Unfortunately for Dez Bryant, his show will stop here. I wouldn’t be surprised if he never makes it back to the NFL.
