Dez Bryant turned down a $5 million offer from the Cleveland Browns, and it made some wonder precisely what the former Dallas Cowboys star is thinking. His former teammate Cole Beasley jumped to his defense on Twitter and said people need to not bash Bryant for what he is doing unless they know the whole story.
“1. Dez knows exactly who he is. 2. Money is not important to Dez at this point in his career. Not why he said no to that offer. If you don’t know anything about it don’t speak on it. From outside looking in it’s impossible to know anything in this business.”
