Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant can’t catch a break. However, he’s still plugging along after multiple lawsuits against him and everyone from here to Timbuktu criticizing his play, effort, maturity and intelligence. Houston Oilers Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon recently took a shot at Bryant, but Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones defended his young star. Bryant doesn’t need help, though; he’s taking everything in stride.
Moon recently used an analysis of Oklahoma State receiver Justin Blackmon to blast Bryant during a recent radio interview. He said “[Blackmon] is like Dez Bryant with all of his brain cells” and “he’s not a knucklehead [like] Dez Bryant.”
As mentioned, Bryant has had his share of on- and off-field issues, but he’s come a long way from the immature freak of an athlete that entered Valley Ranch almost two years ago. Bryant not only has become a force on the football field, but he’s also cleaned up his act off it.
Naturally, Jones fired back at Moon with an honest assessment of Bryant in a positive manner.
