So was that the case?
"I don't understand why my name is associated with this whole ordeal," Roy Williams Jersey said of the dinner. "I mean, it's the same offensive dinner that we've been doing, that every team does in the NFL. So I don't know why my name is the single name in this thing.
A question about the dinner resulted in a lengthy response from Roy Williams Jersey,NFL Jerseys, who wanted to make it clear that he wasn't primarily responsible for running up the bill Monday night at Pappas Bros. Steakhouse. Roy Williams Jersey also felt the need to stress -- again -- that he doesn't have a strained relationship with the rookie receiver who refused to carry his pads during training camp.
"I have nothing against Dez; Dez has nothing against me. Like I said in training camp, I don't want you guys to bang our heads together and try to make us hate each other. That's not going to work.
But Roy Williams Jersey, who recalls splitting a $10,000 check with fellow first-round pick Kevin Jones as a Lions rookie in 2004, did vow during camp that he'd be extra hungry and extra thirsty when he ate at Bryant's expense.

Roy Williams Jersey defensive about dinner
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was," Roy Williams Jersey said with a laugh. "I ain't ate in two days. I'm good."
It's understandable that Roy Williams Jersey wants to make it clear that there is no animosity between him and Bryant, the Cowboys' first-round pick.
Roy Williams Jersey insisted the hefty bill wasn't revenge for Bryant declining to participate in another NFL initiation rite for rookies.
Bryant, who didn't practice this week due to a bruised hip, has not been available for comment since the meal.
"He didn't take my pads. Whoop-de-doo. He didn't take my pads. But he's still out there as a punt returner, catching balls and doing things he needs to do, and I'm doing things I need to do to make this team better. So don't associate me with being the bad guy with Dez, and Dez being the bad guy with me, because that's not what it is."
IRVING, Texas -- The $55,000 feast paid for by Cowboys rookie Dez Bryant is somewhat of a sensitive subject for fellow wide receiver Roy Williams Jersey. |
