On Monday, word emerged that Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant had been detained by police following a fight at a Miami nightclub. Because Bryant was neither arrested nor charged, the story seemed destined to fade away.

Bryant’s mentor, David Wells, has told WFAA-TV that Bryant “got involved in a verbal altercation with some members of a famous rapper’s entourage and had to be detained by police.”

And those two words -- “famous rapper” -- have given the story new life.

According to the Miami New Times, via NBCDFW.com, the “famous rapper” may have been Lil Wayne (pictured).

Though it’s unknown where this story will go from here, it’s safe to say that Todd Haley won’t be rejoining the Cowboys as receivers coach.
