Dez Bryant was rendered a non-factor in the Dallas Cowboy's 49-17 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, catching just one pass for 44 yards.
But the Pro Bowl wideout is adamant that he won't make an issue out of it
"I just do as asked," Bryant told MySanAntonio.com. "That's what I do."
Less than a year after Bryant racked up 224 yards in an overtime loss to the Saints, he was targeted just twice in Sunday night's debacle by quarterback Tony Romo.
"I can't answer that," Bryant said of the drastic change in bottom-line results. "I promise you ain't nothing wrong with it," he added when asked if his lingering back issues had anything to do with his lack of usage. Several media reports indicate he underwent an epidural injection not long before the game.
As usual, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett pointed to double-team coverage as the reason Bryant didn't have an impact.
"Dez gets a lot of attention every week," Garrett told MySanAntonio. "As you guys know, we talk about that a lot. Teams will come out and they will double him a lot of different ways. The Saints did that. They did that in all our different formations and all of our different personnel moves that we were using. He is one of those guys that they want to take out of the game...We didn't do a good enough job just finding the other guys and making them pay with the other guys who weren't getting isolated.
