Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant returned to practice Thursday on a limited basis after missing Wednesday's session with a back issue. While the Cowboys indicated Bryant was held back in practice as a precaution, the receiver's injury could be disconcerting. Citing sources close to Bryant, Fox Sports Southwest reported that there are "concerns he is suffering from a bulging or herniated disc in his back and that measures being taken to treat the ailment go far beyond precautionary." Source: NFL.com markaz's Take: The Cowboys have to be hoping that this is a situation that can be corrected in the off-season. For Bryant's sake I hope that he and the Dallas organization make decisions based on Bryant's long-term health. Yes, the NFC East is theirs for the taking this season, but a healthy Bryant in the future is far more important.
I think the 'Boys can win the East without Bryant in the lineup and have to agree with WARD to shut Bryant down IF THE PROBLEM IS A HERNIATED/BULGING DISC. All it takes is one good shot to the right spot and Bryant could be looking at bigger problems than transient pain.
They will win the nfc east,but without dez i can't see them going far without him. I Hope the cowboys do think of this kid.despite his tantrums,he is the best reciever they have had since irvin,and is a truly gifted young man.would be nice to see him live a long and healthy life outside the nfl.
