Dez Bryant called Skip Bayless out for crossing a line.
Skip Bayless may be one of the most popular sports analysts and dedicated fans of the Dallas Cowboys, but he is no longer in Dez Bryant’s good books. For years, Skip has been a staunch believer that Dez caught the infamous catch in the 2014 playoffs against the Green Bay Packers and has vouched for him. However, Dez has lost all respect for Skip after today’s tweet.
As much as Skip advocated for Dez’s catch to be counted as a legit grab, the wideout now supports that the analyst be canceled at the earliest. The reason for this is the tweet sent out by the analyst after Buffalo Bills Safety Damar Hamlin’s scary injury. In last night’s game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Buffalo Bills, the safety took a hit from Tee Higgins, and after the play; he stood up but immediately collapsed to the ground and had to be carted out of the stadium at the earliest.
Hamlin had to be taken to the hospital where he remains to be in critical condition. In light of his injury, the NFL immediately decided to call the game off and postpone it to a later date that remains unknown. As soon as this information was made public, Skip tweeted out one of the most insensitive and despicable tweets given the circumstances.

Skip Bayless did not understand the logic behind the NFL stopping the Bills-Bengals game following Hamler’s injury:
The analyst was more concerned about how this postponement would impact the schedule of the NFL this late in the season. ”No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game- but how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome… which suddenly seems so irrelevant,” was what he tweeted.
This tweet came at the worst possible timing, as players, fans, and spectators were all concerned over Hamlin, as nobody knew what had happened to him. Skip Bayless’ tweet irked Dez Bryant, who had this to say, “WE NEED TO CANCEL SKIP BAYLESS ASAP,” on Twitter. In light of his tweet, other players and fans were equally enraged. Check out some of the responses.
Bryant’s initial tweet.
Skip did understand the severity of the situation and did issue an apology on his part.
The Damar Hamlin situation is extremely scary and fans all around hope and pray that he is safe and healthy. While Skip Bayless may not have meant anything bad for the safety, his words were easy to misunderstand at that moment. It was well on his part to issue an apology and clarify his stance later on.
