The 2018 NFL season kicked into full gear on Sunday without wide receiver Dez Bryant on a roster, but he expects to be helping someone soon.
Bryant jumped into a discussion among San Francisco 49ers fans, one of which argued Bryant wouldn’t have been much help in the team’s 24-16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Bryant wasn’t buying that assertion, and assured everyone that he’d be back soon.

Bryant’s response isn’t just noteworthy for its content. It’s worth paying attention to the fact that he jumped into a discussion about the 49ers, a team that he’s previously showed interest in playing for. Maybe he’s hoping that a somewhat middling performance by their offense might spur them into giving him a call.
