Dez Bryant hopes to sign with a team soon. Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports

Dez Bryant is once again in the position of not being on an NFL roster on the eve of training camp. That’s not stopping the veteran wide receiver from plugging away in hopes of playing in 2021.

Bryant made clear Friday that he has faith that he will land on a roster in 2021, making clear that “the grind will continue.”

After two seasons away from football, Bryant briefly appeared for the Baltimore Ravens late in the 2020 season. The 32-year-old made six catches for 47 yards, but two of them were touchdown receptions.

There hasn’t been a lot of speculation linking any teams to Bryant during the offseason. He tried to drum up some interest himself, but nothing came of it. He may have to wait for some injuries to land a job in the NFL — if he gets one at all.
