IRVING, Texas – The Cowboys began the task of accounting for Dez Bryant’s absence on Tuesday, as they traded a conditional draft pick to Oakland for wide receiver Brice Butler.
It’s been expected that the team would address its wide out corps while Bryant recovers from foot surgery. The Cowboys worked out veteran receivers Nick Toon, Hakeem Nicks, Clyde Gates and Austin Pettis on Tuesday morning.
They ultimately opted to acquire Butler, who is in his third season with the Raiders after playing for both Southern California and San Diego State during his college career.
