Former Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant’s stint with the New Orleans Saints might be over before it started as the team fears he tore his Achilles tendon on the last play of practice Friday, per multiple reports.
It was first reported by the NFL Network.
If it is indeed a torn Achilles then Bryant’s season is over and possibly his career.
The injury includes a year-long rehab, making it even more challenging for the 30-year receiver to latch on with another team.
Bryant, who has been unemployed since being cut by the Cowboys April 13, joined the Saints on Wednesday after agreeing to a one-year, $600,000 deal.
