Mike Florio from ProFootballTalk.com discussed the rumors regarding why Dez Bryant has not received a new contract from the Dallas Cowboys.

During his interaction with Shan & RJ, Florio brings up the possibility of a video involving Dez Bryant.

“I don’t know if there’s any video that exists,” says Florio. “I’m just saying there is some chatter out there.”

Terrible journalism.

source or **** you hack florio,

This has been said on The Fan as well, which carries the Cowboys games in DFW.

They've intimated that there is something that is troubling the Cowboys in terms of signing Dez long term.

Some say it's his back issues. Others say there are some personal matters looming.

I just appreciate their hesitancy, especially with a franchise tag in their pocket.

PFT = the TMZ of the NFL

@1053SS: Mike Florio says there is league-wide chatter that a Dez Bryant video tape MAY exist that would have a "Ray Rice level impact"

Par for the course.

You'd think Dez would be a little less vehement about the teams loyalty to him if he knew there was a video of him violently beating a woman floating around out there. Wouldn't you?

Both of those possibilities make more sense. Of course, they're also less intriguing to speculate about if you want some play from your unsourced and unverified rumor.

Just keep Florio away from the toilet paper isle at the supermarket...

 

[iceberg]

yawn.

 

[StevenOtero]

Florio is an ambulance chaser type if I've ever seen one.

 

[CCBoy]

yawn.

See, even yawning can be nice...

 

[RonSpringsdaman20]

was ray rice a "ray rice threat" before he did what he did?
give the man his money... and they will.

 

[iceberg]

See, even yawning can be nice...

it was a hell of a lot nicer than what i was going to say.

it's amazing to me how people are so quick to be negative they leave common sense at the door.

 

[Zordon]

this story is libel.

 

[landroverking]

I heard on a sports talk show this week that there was something out there that would keep him out of the NFL if it came to light. I can't think of anything short of muder that could cause that.

[iceberg]

keeps the cowboys from making a "big" offer.
"will keep him out of the NFL forever..."

i can see this is damning to the max.

 

[ufcrules1]

Tag him. Let's be safe.

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

Tag him. Let's be safe.

Just from hearing Stephen talk about them leaning that way makes me think they'll end up doing just that.

I mean, there's probably not a whole lot to these rumors, but what if?

 

[Crown Royal]

If there is nothing to substantiate this rumor people will look dumb
