Dez Bryant seems cool with Cowboys giving CeeDee Lamb No. 88

Dez Bryant was very cool with the Dallas Cowboys handing his number over to top pick CeeDee Lamb.

The rookies are getting their jersey numbers. The Dallas Cowboys have honored their top pick Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb with special numerals: 88.

Those were worn by Drew Pearson, Michael Irvin and most recently Dez Bryant, wideouts who starred for America’s Team.

Jerry Jones suggested recently he thought about bringing Bryant back into the fold while in the shower.

So, why tempt fate by giving his number to Lamb? Because it probably isn’t going to happen.

Anyway. how did Bryant, who played college ball at Oklahoma State, an arch-rival of the Sooners, feel about his digits being handed over to an OU player?

He was cool with it.

Irvin didn’t expect his number to be retired. The Cowboys don’t do that.
