Dez Bryant probably knows how it feels to get some criticism. The former Oklahoma State Cowboy was called a "knucklehead" by Warren Moon. Moon also said that he used to be Bryant, but "with all of his brain cells."

Justin Blackmon, another OSU alum, hasn't gotten many things going for him either, already getting a DUI and blowing a .24, three times the legal limit.

However, Bryant has Blackmon's back, telling Fox Sports Southwest that the Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver can get through what he's going through.

“He’s a great guy,” the Dallas Cowboys receiver said. “If you knew him, you’d be like, ‘I can’t believe it.’ It’s just a lesson that he’s going to have to learn. I feel like he’s going to get through it. I know he is, just because of the type of guy he is. I wish the best for him, and I know he’s going to come through and bounce back and do what he needs to do.”

Bryant has had some issues before, like being banned from a mall in Dallas for wearing his jeans too low. However, he hasn't been in trouble with the law, but he still backs up his former teammate from college.

“Some guys make the right decisions, some guys make the wrong ones,” Bryant said. “When you make a wrong decision it’s your choice if you want to learn from it or not.”
