Cleveland Browns: Dez Bryant says he’s coming for a visit
By Randy Gurzi
After general manager John Dorsey said Dez Bryant won’t return his calls, the big-name wide receiver tweeted that he will visit with the Cleveland Browns
The back and forth between the Cleveland Browns and wide receiver Dez Bryant got a little weird on Thursday. General manager John Dorsey first made a comment about the big-name receiver not calling him back, then Bryant said he would be visiting the Land next week.
There’s been talk back and forth for more than a week now that the two sides could have mutual interest, but it was also refuted on both ends. Some reports have said Bryant had no interest in Cleveland, other reports said the Browns weren’t sure.
It seems like the final answer though is that there is interest on both sides and Bryant himself says he will be visiting the Land.
Bryant would bring an experienced starter to the team that has their new leader in the receiving corps in Jarvis Landry. They also have some potentially explosive players in Josh Gordon and Antonio Callaway, but both have red flags that have the team’s attention.
As for the free agent, Bryant was released by the Dallas Cowboys this offseason after three straight years of disappointing seasons. A lot of that has been attributed to the quarterback play as Tony Romo missed most of 2015 and Dak Prescott and Bryant never formed a bond the past two seasons on the field.
The key word though in Bryan’t Tweet was ‘visits.’ Apparently he believes he could be visiting with more than one team, but Cleveland should be high on his list with the prospects of playing with Tyrod Taylor and Baker Mayfield.
