Cowboys shut down Dez Bryant, who will undergo surgery
Dec 30, 2015
Todd Archer ESPN Staff Writer
IRVING, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys have, in fact, shut down Dez Bryant.
Bryant will be placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, ending his season with one game to play because of foot and ankle injuries that will require surgery in the near future.
Bryant was limited to nine games this season after breaking his right foot in the season opener against the New York Giants. He had surgery the next day and missed five games. At the time of the surgery Bryant had a bone graft to help the healing process, which is standard in how the team deals with foot surgeries. In October he had a stem cell injection into his foot as well.

Multiple sources said Bryant will have more graft added to the fifth metatarsal but there is nothing wrong with the stabilizing screw that was implanted in September. The ankle surgery has been termed a "clean-up," but Bryant should be ready for the team's offseason program in April.
