NFL Notes: Dez Bryant, Kam Chancellor, Buccaneers, & Lions

Dez Bryant

Cowboys WR Dez Bryant mentioned that the first time he had heard about the existence of a video of a parking incident came from owner Jerry Jones.

โ€œThe first time I heard that was from Mr. Jones last season: He said there was a tape of me that might get out,โ€ Bryant told Rolling Stone, via the Dallas Morning News.

Bryant said he suspected that his former adviser, David Wells, was responsible for leaking information to the media.

Rolling Stone managed to speak to Wells about the situation, which he denied being the source.

However, Wells did say: โ€œBut have you seen the police report? Have you heard the 911 call? Something happened in that parking lot, and I didnโ€™t drum it up!โ€

Kam Chancellor

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports has spoken to a number of executives around the league who believe the Seahawks needs to take a hard-line stance with holdout S Kam Chancellor.

โ€œThey canโ€™t give a guy a new deal every time he asks for it,โ€ one rival executive said. โ€œJohn has done such a great job there โ€” and they did create this monster a little bit with the Lynch contracts โ€” but they canโ€™t do this, too.โ€

La Canfora believes the Seahawks, at the very least, have to find out if Chancellor is willing to miss a few game checks before the consider addressing his contract.

Buccaneers

Lions

Lions second-round RB Ameer Abdullah said he would be fine if the team elected to go with a committee approach at running back this year.

โ€œThereโ€™s certain things necessary to get that team [to the playolffs],โ€ Abdullah said, via Detroit Free Press. โ€œand if thatโ€™s to be a running back team by committee, Iโ€™m going to be that guy. And when Iโ€™m in, Iโ€™m going to make sure I make an impact.โ€
