Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant will likely miss Sunday’s game against the New York Giants with a lingering foot injury, reports NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport.

Bryant, 26, hasn’t played since sustaining a broken right foot during the Cowboys’ season opener against the Giants on Sept. 13. The star wideout underwent bone graft surgery on Sept. 14, and was originally expected to miss 10 to 12 weeks.

According to Rapoport’s report, Bryant sat out of practice on Wednesday with the injury, signaling that he will not be ready to play on Sunday, as Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had suggested he would be on Tuesday on a Dallas radio station.

Thanks RS.
Honestly not trying to nit-pick, but I do wish when you guys posted this stuff you'd just put the source in the headline.

It's written as if this if this is certain fact (as if Dallas has announced it as fact) when actually it's just Rappaport once again making a guess.

Maybe a title saying : "Rapaport says....." or "per Ian Rapoport: ...."

Again, not trying to be a weenie here.
 
Rapo-idiot is a tool I don't believe anything that chump says. He is not an Insider he is only taking part of a quote from a reporter and making an assumption
 
Didn't OBJ sit out all the previous week's practice and still played vs Philly?

I'll say that if Dez being out takes us from slight favorites to definite dogs, regardless of how bad the Giants are playing right now

Rappoport know's he missed with his "12 weeks minimum because of the bone graft" and he's just trying to get Dez at least a little closer to that prediction. I wonder if he will just come out and say, "I guess I was wrong"... or will he say, "Dallas rushed him back and shouldn't let him play"?

But I don't think I'd let Dez play in this game either. I'd give him another week to get it right.
 
If it's so close to determine down to a game time decision and Dez isn't sure, I'm not playing him. Running forward is not a problem but cutting on that foot with DB's hanging all over you, esp. with the adrenalin that Dez brings to his game could set him back. No need to shoot your Mutli $$ star WR down for the season by getting greedy for one game. The Giants are going to test Dez's foot whether he's a decoy or catching passes, we know that.
 
So he just started running after a long healing process, and folks want him out there this week?

That sounds like a hamstring injury waiting to happen. Or worse.

Have the national reporters ever had a scoop on the local guys other than just guessing?
 
Haha.."lingering"? Isn't Dez on the short end of his projected recovery period?
 
Thanks RS.

Yeah, I hate these misleading Thread Titles. From the title, you'd think that it's been decided. Then, you enter the thread, only to find out its from Rapp.
 
I don't know anything about this Rappraport guy... is he like a hardcore Cowboys hater or something? Seems like he's always quick to jump on anything negative involving the Cowboys.

I honestly don't see him as a guy that is negatively slanted towards Dallas like some can be. He is just an "insider" at the NFL Network who knows Dallas drives ratings (clicks).
