Fox Sports South West is reporting that the Dalas Cowboys are terribly concerned about a bulging disk in Bryant’s lower back.
While the Cowboys indicated Bryant was held back in practice as a precaution, the receiver’s injury could be disconcerting. Citing sources close to Bryant, Fox Sports Southwest reported that there are “concerns he is suffering from a bulging or herniated disc in his back and that measures being taken to treat the ailment go far beyond precautionary.”Bryant participated on a limited basis in practice on Thursday while continuing to stress that he will play Sunday night in New Orleans.
“C’mon, you know I’m going to play,” Bryant said.
The 25-year-old Bryant is in for a career season so far in 2013, having 51 catches, 705 yards and eight touchdowns so far this year.
