We were just beat by a team with a newly signed injury riddled Julio Jones in their starting line-up. So acting like the Cowboys/you are somehow too good to kick the tires on a 31 year old former star player with little wear, makes one think that you would complain about anything the team does to try improve.
Jones's play with the Eagles___
1st game \week 7 - 16 snaps = 22%...1 target, 1 catch, 3 yds
2nd game\week 8 - 15 snaps = 24%...2 targets, 1 catch, 8 yds, TD
3rd game\ week 9 - 1st start, versus Cowboys...
19 snaps = 31%...0 targets = 0 catches
He's really boosting the offensive production for PHL

Oh come on. Jiulio Jones is a Hall of Farmer with 60 plus catches over last 2 years with 5 TDs on actual NFL teams.

Bryant was struggling....and failing...to earn a job as a 4th or 5th WR for the Edmonton Elks and Las Vegas Vipers....and rejected by those teams.

We SHOULD have signed Julio. He'd be a legit 3rd or 4th WR on this team.

I am hopeful that he has, all along, been fully capable of playing in the NFL, despite not being permitted.

Eagles sign Julio Jones

Cowboys, hold my beer, as we sign someone who hasn't played in 5 years.
To be honest, at least there's some legitimate mystery as to whether Bryant can impress.

We have clear reason to believe that Jones has little if anything left in his tank at this point.

You wouldve complained about the Cowboys signing Julio spouting off the samething I just did about him being injury riddled, guaranteed.

Bryant is low risk, high reward. Iam not seeing the down side here.

Yet they are 8-1 with him being a decoy. Cant argue with results.

Also in 2021, Bryant signed with the CFL Toronto Argonauts in late January.
A little over two months later (early April) he signs with Indoor Football League Massachusetts Pirates.
Bryant plays with them throughout their season through September - which resulted in him getting suspended from the Argonauts because he didn't report to their training camp in July.
Argonauts later released him in December.

Jerry to Stephen "Ok, we have 27 dollars and 32 cents left, is there anything else we can give him?"
Stephen "Well we got that lifetime subscription for Hulu that Zeke didn't take"
Jerry "That just might do it."
