Dallas WR Dez Bryant Plays Catch

Dez Bryant was getting around well in a walking boot on his right foot and believes his high ankle sprain is healing ahead of schedule.

A question was posed to the Cowboys rookie receiver, asking him if he’s still thinking there are three to four weeks left in the recovery.

"There’s no telling for sure," Bryant said, "but I think it might even be sooner than that. It’s coming along pretty good."

The Cowboys obviously will be careful with their first-round draft pick. Bryant caught hundreds of passes during warm-ups for the Hall of Fame game, stretching to work on back of the end-zone receptions near the sidelines. He moved all over the field and shouted to teammates several times how much he wanted to play tonight against the Bengals.

Bryant suffered the ankle injury early in camp, with a four to six week recovery period projected by the Cowboys, putting his readiness for Week 1 in doubt.

Fantasy Impact:

In the short-term, Bryant isn't likely to make a big fantasy impact, but looking ahead to the second half of 2010 and future seasons, you'd be hard-pressed to find a receiver with as much potential.

Make no mistake, Emmanuel Sanders is no Dez Bryant, at least not when it comes to exhibiting training-camp protocol.

Sanders, a rookie wide receiver from pass-happy Southern Methodist, was more than happy to carry Hines Ward's shoulder pads off the practice field at St. Vincent College -- something Bryant, a rookie, refused to do for veterans at the Dallas Cowboys training camp.

"It's like a rite of passage," said Sanders, a third-round draft choice. "That's what rookies do."

Sanders is hoping to do something else that a rookie wide receiver did last year for the Steelers: Be a big contributor in the offense.

He is hoping to follow the path of Mike Wallace, a third-round draft choice in 2009 who won the battle as the team's No. 3 receiver and ended up catching six touchdown passes and averaging a team-high 19.6 yards per catch.

Just the other day Dallas special teams coach Joe DeCamillis was talking about his excitement level in having Dez Bryant return kicks and punts.

"He's special with the ball in his hands and we're going to try to help him as much as we can," DeCamillis said, adding, "I think he's got a chance to be exceptional at both."

But with Bryant now out 4-6 weeks with a high right ankle sprain, the Cowboys will have to wait to see how good Bryant can be in the return game.

In Saturday's morning session, Felix Jones was the first-team kick returner, followed by Miles Austin and Titus Ryan. Patrick Crayton, who returned two punts for touchdowns last year, would move up to the No. 1 punt return role, although Terence Newman can do it. Cletis Gordon and Bryan McCann have taken turns too.

Dallas Owner and GM Jerry Jones does not think this injury will knock Bryant out of those roles.

"Look, he may be doing punt returns in December and we won't even remember this by the time we get to December," Jones said. "That's a lifetime away."

Dez Bryant will be in a protective boot for the next two weeks because of his high right ankle sprain and he will also be even more acquainted with wide receivers coach Ray Sherman.

Bryant watched most of practice while standing next to Sherman as they went over each play and what would be his responsibility.

"That's what we have to do because he's not going to be on the field," Sherman said. "He'll be in all of the meetings and he'll be out on the field watching."

Sherman said he noticed a little frustration in Bryant after the rookie suffered the injury on Saturday.

"He was frustrated because he wants to play in the preseason games," Sherman said. "That's what he was looking forward to, but he's good now."
