Dez Bryant to the Cowboys “don’t test my loyalty”

Dez Bryant recently signed with Roc Nation Sports. Bryant will hit free agency in the offseason and wants big money from the Cowboys. Owner Jerry Jones was reportedly unhappy that Dez made the decision to throw his diamond in the sky with Jay Z. Those are the conditions setting up for negotiations.

Dez reportedly wants to stay a Cowboy for life, and appreciates how the team has stood by him through his various ups and downs both on and off the field. But, that doesn’t mean he won’t walk if he doesn’t believe he’s getting full value for his services.

“I just know what I’m going to accept and I know what I’m not going to accept,” Bryant said. “You know, it’s not about the money. It’s not about none of that. I just feel like a little respect should play a factor in that. I love it [here]. I really do. But every day you grow. Let’s see what happens. It’s all about respect. It’s all about respect. I am a very loyal person, but just don’t test my loyalty.”

Bryant said he’s not being overly demanding but there are absolutely some non-negotiable items. Do you think Dez ends up somewhere else next season?

On a random yet related note, the Cowboys look like they might finally make the post season this year. Dez wanted to show his appreciation to his O-line so he gifted them with the brand new Jordan 14S. It should also be noted that Dez is signed to the Jordan brand.

Via Nice Kicks:

Dez Bryant got Jordans for the O-line. “They been balln’! I stayed swagged up. They deserve to be swagged up, too.”
