kcchief4lif 910 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 That didn't last long... Dez Bryant hasn't even played a game with the Saints yet and his season might already be over. According to NFL.com, Bryant suffered an injury at practice on Friday and the team is fearful that he has torn his Achilles tendon, which would cause him to miss the rest of the season. Bryant is currently getting an MRI and the Saints should know the full extent of the injury by the end of the day. If Bryant did tear his Achilles, it's a devastating blow for the receiver who was participating in just his second practice with the Saints. Bryant's first practice came on Thursday and he admitted that he used most of that session to knock some of the rust off. "It was good," Bryant said after his first practice. "Just knocking a little bit of the rust off, but it was good." Bryant had just signed a one-year deal with the Saints this week after spending the past seven months as a free agent. After being cut by the Cowboys in April, Bryant turned down multiple offers from other NFL teams, before the Saints starting courting him earlier this week. Bryant said multiple times during the offseason that he wanted to play for a contender, which made New Orleans an easy choice for him. On the Saints' end, the team was in some serious need of wide receiver depth when they added Bryant and now they're back at square one. Before signing Bryant this week, the Saints also had a workout with Brandon Marshall, who could be the team's next option if Bryant is definitely done for the season. According to ESPN.com, Marshall "impressed" the Saints during his work out, which makes him the next logical choice to sign in New Orleans. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/saints-reportedly-fear-dez-bryant-is-out-for-the-season-after-suffering-ugly-practice-injury/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You pay something for nothing. That's overpaying. If you gave me 10k and I gave you nothing in return, wouldn't you be overpaying for nothing? Did he take a single snap in a game? No, thus overpaying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
