Dez Bryant is still trying to prove to NFL teams that he has enough left in the tank to contribute, and the reigning Super Bowl MVP is doing what he can to help the former Dallas Cowboys star earn recognition.
Patrick Mahomes threw passes to Bryant at APEC training center in Forth Worth on Friday.

Bryant went from being one of the most dominant wide receivers in football to not being able to find work in what felt like the blink of an eye. The former first-round pick is still just 31, but he has obviously lost some explosiveness and dealt with a major injury. Bryant signed with the New Orleans Saints midway through the 2018 season but never appeared in a game after tearing his Achilles in practice.
While it seemed like he was hinting at being on the verge of signing with a team last season, there has not been much interest in Bryant since the Achilles injury. If he can show teams this offseason that he is healthy and still has some speed, he could be a very low-risk signing that has the potential to pay off.
