It’s no doubt that Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant is a fierce competitor on the field, but his emotions got the best of him before the end of the game Sunday night against the Packers – forcing him to abandon his teammates on the sidelines and leave the game with minutes to spare.
Following a 4th quarter interception ruling, giving Green Bay the ball and ultimately the victory, Bryant left the bench and headed back to the locker room – according to Bryant, to cry.
“I was very emotional. I cried when I got into the locker room.” Bryant said Monday during a visit to Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth, Texas.
“Obviously he was frustrated, as a lot of us were.” said Cowboys COO Stephen Jones. “It wasn’t a good decision on his part, I think he was the first to admit it. He let the heat of the moment and the emotion of the game get to him.”

In related news, Mayor Bloomberg invited Tony Romo to preside over Times Squares New Years Eve celebration.
Romo is expected to drop the ball..
So much for "professional" football.
Hey, it's a damned game, for which you get paid to play.
Sheesh!
Romo threw his helmet when he got to the sideline.
It was intercepted too
Working his way to Terrell Owens syndrome.
It’s not a matter of taking one over the other. You don’t walk off the field
and abandon your teammates, unless you are physically injured, not mentally injured. Does Bryant think he is the only one frustrated?
He should be heavily fined by the NFL.
Did I miss the “humor” keyword?
Aye. But the Owner/GM hired him, too.
And, frustration or not, this is his job. This is what he does for a living. Imagine if you walk out on your work colleagues because of some disappointment or tough day at work. How would that go over with them and your bosses????
Jerry Jones needs to hire a GM, and let his GM run the football operations. Jerry Jones is an egotistical man who owns a team. He meddles and doesn’t know football. He needs a football man as GM, let the GM hire and fire coaches and players. Stay in the background and let experienced football men run the team.
Agreed.
This guy was a punk during his OSU days, and he’s still a punk today. His ego rivals that of Jerry Jones.
Garrett is the perfect Jerry Puppet.
Yep. The wheels are off now. Watch them lose out the remainder of the season. Pathetic.
Cousins will get at least 400 yards passing on them.
Run the damn football!!!
They lost da game so what Dez it matter?
