According to Mike Jones of USA Today, the Redskins do not have free agent WR Dez Bryant on their radar right now, despite speculation that Washington could be a landing spot for him.
- According to Mickey Spagnola, Bryant said while walking out of the team’s facility that he’ll see the Cowboys twice this year, implying he could sign with an NFC East team.
- Bryant also retweeted a suggestion that he could look into signing with either the Eagles, Redskins, or Giants. (Mike Garafolo)
It’s worth mentioning that signing Bryant to a contract won’t impact a team’s 2019 compensatory picks, given that he was released this offseason.
Bryant, 29, is a former first-round pick of the Cowboys back in 2010. He was in the third year of his five-year, $70 million contract that included $45 million guaranteed and was set to make base salaries of $12.5 million over the final two years of the agreement when Dallas released him in a move that freed up $8.5 million of available cap space.
In 2017, Bryant has appeared in 15 games for the Cowboys and has caught 66 passes for 814 yards receiving and six touchdowns. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 45 receiver out of 116 qualifying players.
