FRISCO, Texas – What has been speculated for months is now reality: the Dallas Cowboys have released Dez Bryant.
The Cowboys released Bryant on Friday, moving on from one of the most successful receivers in the franchise’s history.
Speculation about Bryant has surrounded the Cowboys since the end of the 2017 season, when it was first suggested that the former All-Pro might need to take a pay cut in the coming year. Prior to his release, he was set to make $12.5 million in 2018 and count $16.5 million against salary cap.
