Over the weekend, Dallas Cowboys star Dez Bryant was tackled hard by safety J.J. Wilcox, resulting in a fight that escalated to a skirmish between the offense and defense. All in all, this fight ended up cooling down into a great moment for the team as Bryant admitted he "loved it." Find out why below!
"I love it. I love every bit of it. The reason why I love it is because that's what we need," Bryant said according to the Cowboys website. "Just in the heat of the moment, it got physical. It turned into like a real competition. I felt it. J.J. put a nice hit on me. He pissed me off, but at the end of the day, I loved it. I told him, 'Keep it coming.' Hopefully the rest of the guys on that defense - not only the defense, but the offense and the whole team - feed off of that. That's what it takes to win. That's what we need to win. You've got to have that passion and that love for the game"
Meanwhile, Wilcox admitted that he got a cheap shot on the star player.
"It's a good thing he wasn't looking because he's a full head of steam at 220 (pounds) coming," Wilcox said. "I got a good little cheap shot in on him. We're still brothers, though. We still talk and talk about us doing our thing. It's just part of football. That's a safety's dream to see a guy coming over the middle like that. I just hope I can take that to the game."
