Dez Bryant wants to be ‘home’ with Cowboys

Former Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant continues to talk up a potential return to the NFL in 2020. And in his mind, the first and best option is a return to Dallas.

“Of course, that’s home,” Bryant said in a Wednesday interview with Dallas’ FOX 4, per USA Today. “That’s home. And potentially being able to play with Dak (Prescott), Zeke (Elliott), Amari Cooper, Randall Cobb, Michael Gallup, those guys, (Blake) Jarwin – I think that would be great. I understand that’s their team, but I feel like they have the right pieces to go to the Super Bowl, and I feel like I can help be a part of that, if possible. But every night, I’m just working, grinding, trying to get on that field either way.”

Bryant hasn’t played in an NFL game since the 2017 season. He was released by the Cowboys during the 2018 off season and eventually joined the New Orleans Saints that November. However, during his first week of practice, Bryant tore his Achilles and was placed on injured reserve without suiting up for a Saints game.
