Just saw that on NFL network. Hope that is the worst case scenario.

If he had a bone graft it is the reality.

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

its the best decision. too many cases where athletes come back to soon and are never the same. This is a piviotal time in Dez career physically and emotional. Hopefully he will use the down time to think about how he channels his energy. I love...love....the passion....but Dez gets so jacked up that he gets himself dehydrated in the 1st half of the 1st game? You can be passionate and inspirational.....without making yourself unavailable. And he MUST learn this!

 

[Hailmary]

Sigh....

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Well I.R. here he comes. At least that gives us another roster spot to use.

 

[CowboyMike]

It's Rappaport. I'll believe it when someone else reports it without sourcing him.

 

[Everson24]

This season could go down the tubes very quickly. One more reason to hate Dean Blandino. Our window to win a super bowl under Tony Romo was probably last year.

 

[TheFinisher]

damn... of all seasons for this to happen

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

I'd rather have Dez take his time allowing the foot to fully heal over returning sooner then he should and making the injury worse or not being able to play at 100%. Hopefully Butler will be able to step up and be productive. He won't be Dez but as long as he can help the O move the ball on a consistent basis then I think the team will be okay without Dez.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Don't listen to anything. Dez will come back before 10 weeks.

 

[RonSpringsdaman20]

and that's what I was worried about.... bone graft

well at least it was done initially......

time to use those baby hands Twill.

 

[Hardline]

Too much of a loss to overcome.

I'll wait to hear it from us.

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

That makes no sense. We decided not to put him on short term IR because they thought he could be back before those 8 weeks were up. It's not like the Cowboys didn't know how the procedure went.

 

[Alexander]

I'll wait to hear it from us.

You probably won't until it is too late. Remember this is an organization that carried Terry Glenn for an entire season on the active roster even when it was clear he wouldn't make it back 100%.

 

[Oh_Canada]

Too much of a loss to overcome.

Is that all it takes?
They will be fine, great QB, and the defense is going to be a beast this season. They just need to hang in until week five.

 

[Risen Star]

Yeah, we have to make the playoffs this year without Dez Bryant.

I don't think they can do it. They had a lot of luck last year and I didn't think they'd have the same luck this year. So far that's been the case.

Now on the flip side, if they do make it and then get Dez back for the playoff run, fear the Cowboys.

 

[Risen Star]

If Romo has another year in him after this one, we can't let this happen again. Prioritize getting a significant WR in the offseason.

 

[65fastback2plus2]

Oh well. Tony will just have to rack up all his yards and td's with other wr's
