Bryant returning to NFL with Saints

-

Free agent Dez Bryant and the New Orleans Saints have agreed on contract terms that will add the former Dallas Cowboys star to one of the NFL’S top offences in New Orleans. The 30-yearold Bryant spent his first eight years in the NFL with Dallas and last season caught 69 passes for 838 yards and six touchdowns, including a 50-yard scoring play, for the Cowboys. However, his profession­al reputation has been marred at times by public confrontat­ions with coaches and teammates during games and practices. Seeking salary cap relief, the Cowboys released Bryant after last season with two years remaining on the receiver’s fiveyear, Us$70-million contract.
