Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant had one of the biggest plays in Sunday’s victory over the Steelers when he reeled in a 50-yard strike from Dak Prescott for a touchdown in the third quarter of the game.
After he scored, Bryant pointed to the sky, appeared to blow a kiss and then dropped to one knee in what may have been a reference to the death of his father on Saturday night. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told Cowboys radio sideline reporter Kristi Scales of 105.3 The Fan about MacArthur Hatton’s passing before the game started.
“Of course, [Bryant’s] very sad. And you only have one of those,” Jones said. “But he was getting the kind of support you would think. He’s loved in that locker room. And, so, there was a lot of sensitivity and love being expressed to him. I’ll say this. If he wanted to be at some place in his life, I bet it would be right in the middle of that locker room to be dealing with that.”
Our condolences to Bryant on his loss.
