Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told 105.3 FM The Fan that wide receiver Dez Bryant’s fractured finger will likely never be the same again.
“It’ll be a challenge with the flexibility of the finger, probably, for the rest of his life,” Jones said, via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “I think he’ll still be able to use it and use it in a way that he’ll be successful on the field and use it every day, as well.”
I’m sure Bryant will learn to deal with his injured finger. If former NFL wide receiver Torry Holt could play with a finger that looks like this, Dez will be fine.
