The Dallas Cowboys showed heart in defeating the New York Giants, and they’ll need every bit of it.
Dallas will be without their star wide receiver for more than a month after Dez Bryant suffered a broken foot during the team's 27-26 victory on Sunday night.
Jerry Jones said Dez Bryant needs a screw in his foot. Says he'll miss 3-6 weeks probably.

“We want to be careful about making the entire judgment on it but Dez did break a bone,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said in his postgame press conference. “We anticipate him having surgery. The initial diagnosis is he’ll be out 4-6 weeks.”
Bryant caught five passes for 48 yards in the Cowboys win. The Cowboys play at Philadelphia next week.
