Dez Bryant plans to reach out to NFL teams in two weeks
Dez Bryant has been quietly working his way back from a torn Achilles tendon, and the free agent wide receiver says he is ready to return to the NFL.
Bryant posted a photo on Twitter Wednesday saying he was feeling like himself again.
Feeling like me again

Then he said he will be reaching out to teams in two weeks and “see what happens.”
I’m not trying to go nowhere and be a starter on a team I want to contribute because I know I will be able too… I’m feeling good… in two weeks I’m going to reach out to teams and see what happens…. let’s go X

Bryant said in August that he was targeting a mid-October return. He obviously missed that timetable, but he is still hoping to provide a boost for a team over the final month of the season and potentially the playoffs. He looked good in a workout video he posted last month too.
The 31-year-old was a factor in 2017, catching 69 passes for 838 yards and six touchdowns with the Cowboys. He signed with the Saints last year but suffered the injury in his first practice.
