IRVING (105.3 THE FAN) - My quickie Q-and-A with Dez Bryant, in which the Cowboys star talks football… and baseball.
I asked the rehabbing Bryant about his absence from the Dirk Nowitzki Heroes Baseball Game over the weekend.
DEZ: "God knows I wanted to play. But at the same time I had to be extremely smart. I did not want Coach (Jason) Garrett blowing up my line, nor Mr. (Jerry) Jones.''
I jokingly note that the positive of Dez' absence is that he didn't embarrass himself, as he's "terrible at baseball.''
DEZ: "I am extremely terrible at baseball. Extremely terrible. But I look good in my outfit.''
I ask if Bryant is comfortable with the idea of being in bubble wrap during this week's minicamp as Dallas holds him back until training camp in Oxnard in August.
DEZ: I am fine with it. I understand what's happening, I understand what we're doing. But they're gonna let the boy out at training camp. And I cannot wait!''
