NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell reinstated former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant on Saturday, and he’s already scheduled to meet with two teams.
Per Bleacher Report’s Jordan Schultz, first up is a workout with the Dallas Cowboys. Should Bryant leave Arlington without a deal, he’ll meet with the Tennessee Titans.
It’s been five years since Bryant, the Steelers’ fourth-round draft pick in 2014, has played in the NFL. His history of substance abuse issues led to multiple suspensions, the most recent an indefinite suspension in 2020.
Bryant, who turns 32 next month, last played at the highest level with the then-Oakland Raiders in 2018. He had a stint in the CFL and spent the 2022 season with Rod Woodson’s Vegas Vipers.
In four NFL seasons (he was suspended for the entirety of 2016), he logged 145 receptions on 251 targets for 2,183 yards and 17 touchdowns. His best season, 765 yards and six scores, came with Pittsburgh in 2015.
Five years is an eternity in NFL years, and it’s valid to wonder what he still has left in the tank to offer a professional club.
