Twitter: Dez: "I never should have stepped back on the field"

[Word Mofo]

What does he mean by that? Did he do himself permanent damage?

Ouch. Don't like the way that sounds.

Roddy White had no reason to lie.....he basically said this when the injury occurred.

And yet some people claim he was hot dogging it because he got paid meanwhile he rushed back in a season we all thought had had superbowl aspirations.

I'd say maybe some will be slower to question a player's heart going forward.... but who am I kidding?

Love you Dez. Now take the full offseason to get back to the Dez we know.

Heart is one thing about him no one should ever fix their mouths to question.

Think he is saying that he wasn't able to be the gamebreaker he was due to the injury.
Don't think he is foreshadowing that he may not be the same guy moving forward

So he found that out "today"?

Today as in now, looking back

Its a foot injury he will be back and better than ever for the off-season.

Foot injuries are tricky for explosive athletes. Hakeem Nicks was never the same. A foot injury ruined Bill Walton's career too. Him becoming the Dez of 2014 is no done deal.

Julio Jones, but yes.

OMG

It was Julio Jones

We were all kidding ourselves when it came to Dez Bryant with the exception of Julio Jones.

The Atlanta Falcons’ All Everything wide receiver warned the world back in September that Dez was not going to be Dez after he suffered that broken foot in Week 1 against the New York Giants. Julio was right, and the rest of us, including Dez, were in denial

Before the Cowboys played the Falcons in Week 3, Julio Jones warned us this scenario was more than possible.

“With Dez, he’s just going to have to take time and get healed up properly because you can rush these things because of the competitor that he is, you don’t want to rush it and then it sets you back,” Jones said. “I’m not a doctor. I don’t know how he’s going to bounce back from it. For me, speaking for myself, I was probably on bed rest with no weight-bearing for probably two months. That’s before I was even able to go out and run or anything.”

Yeah, that's how I took it too.

 

[John813]

So he found that out "today"?

Maybe he reviewed a bunch of film, or once the season was officially over he stepped back and gave an honest review of himself.

Now, if news comes out that he saw a foot specialist yesterday, then I'll be a tad worried.

 

[CATCH17]

What a awful year for Dez Bryant.

 

[Alexander]

What the Tweet disappeared?

 

[JohnsKey19]

Julio Jones, but yes.

I know Julio had the injury but i thought Roddy made the comment that Dez would(or should) miss the entire season.
