Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is making strides in his recovery from a broken foot sustained during Week 1 of the 2015 season.

Bryant was held out of five games, recording 31 receptions for 401 yards and three touchdowns in nine games, all career lows.

The two-time Pro Bowler is rounding back into top form in workouts, Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett said.

"He's done a really good job with his rehab, and he's made progress," Garrett said to ESPN's Todd Archer. "Like with all those guys, it's a day-by-day, week-by-week thing. But he's had no setbacks, but he really continues to get better and better."

It remains unclear whether Bryant will attend minicamp, and the Cowboys star could elect to sit out in order to further recover from injury.

"As soon as he's healthy, he'll get integrated back in," Garrett said. "He's doing everything we're asking him to do with his rehab, and he's making progress. There will be different thresholds he'll have as we would with any injured player, 'He's doing this well, let's take the next step. He's doing this well, let's take the next step.' So we'll do that with him, and hopefully over the course of the offseason and into training camp he'll start playing some football with us."
