Dez Bryant sends out cryptic tweet about status with Cowboys

Published Feb. 17, 2015 4:28 p.m. ET

Dez Bryant has made it clear he wants to stay in Dallas. Now, with the Cowboys thinking about using their franchise tag on him rather than signing the star to a long-term deal, it appears their All-Pro wide receiver is questioning the team's loyalty.

Bryant sent out this tweet on Tuesday:

On Monday, the window officially opened for teams to use the franchise tag on players. If the Cowboys did that with Bryant, it would cost the team around $13 million in salary for 2015. Bryant, a client with Jay-Z's Roc Nation, had said during the 2014 regular season that he would be highly disappointed to play 2015 under the tag without a long-term deal.

The Cowboys must also weigh possibly using the designation on another critical player: Pro Bowl running back DeMarco Murray. Bryant caught 88 passes for 1,320 yards and a team-record 16 touchdowns this past season.
