Dez Bryant Sued Again. According to this lawsuit, between January ’09 and July 2010, Colleyville’s Eleow Hunt gave the Cowboys receiver: 40 pieces of jewelry, worth $588,500; $26,000 in cash (for expenses and spending money); and $15,850 in tickets to various sporting events. Bryant was supposed to repay all this when he signed a pro contract. Hunt has receipts. The word Bryant is looking for is: guhhhhhhh. This quote from Bryant’s lawyer, state Sen. Royce West, doesn’t scream innocence: “What we’re seeing is Dez Bryant being singled out. There are lawsuits. They will be resolved.”
