Receiver Dez Bryant’s days with the Dallas Cowboys appear to be numbered.
There is no other way to explain the team’s continued vague and non-committal stance about his future.
One day after vice president Stephen Jones doubled down on his rhetoric regarding the team have a huge decision to make about Bryant’s $12.5 million case salary for 2018, while also tellingly comparing it to the emotional retirements of Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin, coach Jason Garrett took an unusually cryptic stance Wednesday at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.
Asked Wednesday directly if he wanted Bryant to return to the Cowboys in 2018, Garrett said the team has not had any specific personnel meetings about any players yet.
