The Dallas Cowboys have plenty of offseason needs that will rise to the surface in short order. With their season likely set to expire  following the Week 17 game against Washington, Dallas has an unprecedented 24 free agents they’ll have to either re-sign or replace.

One former player may be interested in finding a role with the only team he’s suited up for. Wideout Dez Bryant responded to a fan inquiry by stating he’d be interested in joining back up with Dallas after sitting out all of 2018 and 2019 due to various ailments.

Bryant is currently the team’s all-time touchdown reception leader with 73, playing for Dallas from 2010 through 2017. He was released in free agency of 2018 and worked to build his health back up. During the season, he signed with the New Orleans Saints, but tore his achilles in a Friday practice before making his debut. He sat out this year but has spent it regularly engaged on Twitter while working out diligently to prepare for a comeback.

Would Dallas be interested in bringing Bryant back? As he mentions in the tweet, he’s been one of the best red-zone threats the NFL has seen. It certainly would be some reunion after the way he and the team parted ways.
