Dez Bryant Career

Bryant announced his intentions to enter the 2010 NFL Draft on 5, November 2009. He was widely believed to be the best wide receiver available. If he slipped by the Broncos, he was projected to fall no lower than the twenty-seventh pick to the Dallas Cowboys. After dropping because of character concerns, the Cowboys traded up with the New England Patriots, moving from the twenty-seventh to the twenty-fourth positions to select Bryant. For the move, the team sent a third-round draft choice, which was the 90th overall pick, while receiving the Patriots’ fourth-round draft choice, which was the 119th overall pick.

2007 season

Bryant made his collegiate debut against Georgia and had one reception for seven yards in the 35–14 loss on 1, September. Against Texas Tech, he had five receptions for 51 receiving yards and his first collegiate receiving touchdown, a 5-yard reception from Zac Robinson, in the 49–45 victory on 22, September. Against Kansas State, he had 3receptions for thirty-seven receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in the 41–39 victory on 20 October. Against Kansas, he set a school record for receiving yards in a game by a freshman with 155 in the 43–28 loss on 10, November. In the year 2007 Insight Bowl, he recorded 9 receptions for 117 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in a 49–33 win against the Indiana Hoosiers.In the year 2007, he finished second on the team with 43 receptions for 622 receiving yards and six receiving touchdowns in twelve games.

Dallas Cowboys

On 22, July 2010, Bryant was signed by the Cowboys to a contract very similar to that of Vikings’ wide receiver Percy Harvin 5 decades, $12.05 million, roughly $8.4 million guaranteed. It was announced that he would wear the #88 jersey, the same as Hall of Famer Michael Irvin and Cowboys legend Drew Pearson on 23, July 2010.
On 12, September he made his NFL debut against the Washington Redskins and had 8 receptions for fifty-six yards. His 8 receptions in his NFL debut set a franchise record for most in a player’s first game. In the next game, he had a punt return touchdown in the 27–20 loss to the Chicago Bears. He caught his first NFL touchdown catch, on a thirty-one-yard pass from Tony Romo on 17 October. The Cowboys ended up losing that game 24–21.

In a Monday Night Football game against the New York Giants, at Cowboys Stadium he caught 4 passes for fifty-four yards, two of them for touchdowns, and returned a punt 93 yards for a touchdown, making the longest Cowboys’ punt return since Dennis Morgan’s 98-yard return during the year 1974 NFL season. With that performance, he became the youngest wide receiver in franchise history to total three touchdowns in a single game, breaking Michael Irvin’s mark in the year 1988. He caught 3 passes for 104 yards and one touchdown, to become the first Cowboys rookie with a 100+ yard game since Antonio Bryant in the year 2002.
