Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is unlikely to be back any sooner than Week 8. There are a ton of different timetables circulating right now. We have everything from four to 12 weeks. One thing that seems consistent at this point is there is no way he'll be back in four weeks and he should not be expected back any time before Week 8. That's the quickest he will return. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says it will take six full weeks to heal and Dr. Mark Adickes told ESPN 8-12 Weeks is a more realistic timetable and 4-6 weeks is "aggressive".
