Sources: Dez Bryant Tells Cowboys He Will Hold Out If No Deal Reached, Stephen Jones Denies It

The deadline approaches, rhetoric heating up.

We're coming down to the wire for the Dallas Cowboys and Dez Bryant to work out a new, long term deal. The deadline is Wednesday, June 15th for anything to happen, or else Bryant will play under the franchise tag tender. Or will he?

According to league sources, Dez Bryant has informed Stephen Jones that he will hold out from training camp and from regular season games if a new deal is not struck before the deadline. Now we're left to ponder if this is an ultimatum that Bryant will follow through on, or is it a last minute negotiating tactic.
