Dez Bryant says he’s two weeks away from trying out for the NFL

Former New Orleans Saints and Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has been transparent in his recovery from a torn Achilles tendon he suffered last year, sharing updates from his journey that started in a hospital bed after surgery and recently moved to a training facility. The latest word from the repeat-Pro Bowler puts him on a time table that’s still two weeks away from NFL tryouts.

It’s a setback for sure, considering Bryant previously said that he hoped for a mid-October return to the NFL. It’s unclear what’s delayed his recovery but he’s obviously putting in the work.
