The Dallas Cowboys are always put under the microscope for the decisions that they make, especially as they look to contend for Super Bowls.
The team recently made a key move at the wide receiver position to release veteran wide receiver Martavis Bryant.
According to the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, other teams are expected to bring him in for a look.

Bryant has had a long, winding career in professional football.
He was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2014 in the fourth round.
The former Clemson star was later traded in 2018 to the Raiders for a 3rd-round pick.
He would be suspended that year for violating the league’s drug policy and would not be officially reinstated until 2023.
Before being signed to the Cowboys practice squad in 2023, Bryant played in the CFL, the Indoor Football League, the Fan Controlled Football League, and the XFL.
Credit to him, he has not given up on his career and his dream.
Now, the 32-year-old will look to continue his NFL career with another team.
His best career NFL season came with the Steelers back in 2015.
That year, he caught 50 passes on 92 targets for 765 yards and 6 touchdowns.
This was when he was a part of an offense with Ben Roethlisberger, Le’Veon Bell, Antonio Brown, and Heath Miller.
At minimum, Bryant still should be on a practice squad somewhere.
The 6-4, 210-pound pass-catcher can still be a big body in the red zone for a team that needs him.
He will need to work his way up to earn their trust.
