Jerry Jones: Dez Bryant likely to sit out rest of preseason

The Dallas Cowboys will err on the side of caution with receiver Dez Bryant, likely holding him out for the final two preseason games, according to owner Jerry Jones.

Bryant has been dealing with a hamstring injury, which has limited him in training camp.

"I’m not so sure we're satisfied that it's necessary for him to extend that (hamstring) that he's got, since he did extend it with probably a suddenness that had he probably been out there for longer periods of time, he might not have had that happen," Jones explained on his radio show on 105.3 The Fan Friday morning.

"Let's give him the rest. We don't have to have him (Saturday) night. That's the way I would look at it, and do look at it."

The Cowboys star has already missed the team's first two preseason games. It appears his first game action of the year could come in Week 1 against the division-rival New York Giants.
