Dez Bryant Skies to Catch a Jump Ball For This Absurd Touchdown

Welcome back, Dez

Dez Bryant was having a ho-hum night in his second game back from returning from injury for the Dallas Cowboys. He'd caught just two balls for 57 yards and the Cowboys found themselves down a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles early on in the fourth quarter of Sunday Night Football. Then he went full Dez Bryant.

On a broken play, Bryant, who was double covered on his route the the endzone, somehow jumped above those defenders and two of his own teammates when quarterback Matt Cassell suddenly turned into Johnny Manziel, scrambled and launched a jump ball into the back of the end zone. Bryant skied over everyone and came down with the catch to tie the game at 21.

It's good to officially have you back, Dez.
