Dez Bryant hopeful for NFL return, continuing to train after recovery

One-time New Orleans Saints wide receiver and longtime Dallas Cowboys superstar Dez Bryant is nearing the end of his road to recovery from last year’s Achilles injury. Bryant said on his official Twitter account that remaining healthy is his only concern, and that the next three weeks will be critical for him. That lines up with the mid-October timeline he referenced earlier this year.

The three-time Pro Bowler, now 30 years old and two years removed from football, looks to be in great shape. Bryant’s been training with David Robinson, a specialist in kinesiology who lists wide receivers including Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders, Sterling Shepherd, and Rashard Higgins among his clients.
