Report: Dez Bryant expected to play in Week 8
Dez Bryant is expected to play in Week 8 for the Dallas Cowboys, according to a report.
Bryant has been out since suffering a knee injury in Week 3 against the Bears. The Cowboys had Week 7 off with a bye, and the plan was to hold Bryant out through that time and not take any risks with his health.
Now ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Bryant is expected to play on Sunday night against the Eagles.

The report comes as no surprise given that Bryant said last week he would be playing in Week 8 against Philly. The only question is whether or not this bizarre injury will affect his hands.
Bryant has 11 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown this season.
