Dez Bryant plans to play two more seasons, but not with Ravens

Dez Bryant returned to the NFL for the 2020 season, signing a deal with the Baltimore Ravens. The 32-year-old, however, does not plan to return to the franchise in 2021. 

Bryant responded to several tweets on Tuesday and indicated he plans on playing two more years, just not with the Ravens.

Bryant signed with Baltimore's practice squad on Oct. 27 and made his debut during Week 9 against the Indianapolis Colts. He didn't get a target in his two snaps and was then left off the team after a 23-17 loss to the New England Patriots a week later. 

The Ravens elevated Bryant again for a Week 11 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. He had four catches for 28 yards on five targets. 

Bryant was supposed to suit up against the Dallas Cowboys, his former team, but was scratched because of a positive COVID-19 test. The three-time Pro Bowler claimed the test was a false positive and threatened to retire.

The Oklahoma St. product finished with six catches for 47 yards and two touchdowns last season. Although he won't return to the Ravens, Bryant admitted he's grateful they gave him an opportunity to return to the league.
