While Dez Bryant hasn’t played in the NFL since 2017, the former Dallas Cowboys star is still keeping busy and making money. Proof of this is when the wide receiver turned a bet of $767 into a pot of over $400,000.
Although Bryant last played in the league seven years ago, there’s speculation that the former Cowboys wide receiver is planning for a comeback this 2024 season. And even if no one signs him, he has already accomplished a lot during his career.
In his time playing for the Dallas Cowboys, Bryant received a number of accolades for his work. Some of these include three Pro Bowl selections and being named to a First-Team All-Pro in 2014.
Unfortunately, the Cowboys had to let Bryant go after going through a decline in his performance and other off-field concerns. Nevertheless, the wide receiver has always expressed his desire to return to the NFL while staying in shape just in the a team signs him up.
Dallas Cowboys Star Dez Bryant Shares How He Got $400,000 Richer on a Simple Bet
Although he has been out of action since 2017, Bryant has made himself busy outside the field. Just recently, the former Dallas Cowboys star made himself $400,000 richer when he placed a bet on the University of Nevada in their match against the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels.
At first, Bryant’s $767 bet grew to $79,500 when the first 12 legs of a 13-leg wager had come in. He then showed what happened when the wide receiver let the bet ride further in a tweet he posted on X:

From there, Bryant saw his initial bet of $767 grow to a whopping $416,970. All things considered, that’s a long way from the amount he spent on Nevada. Fortunately, his gambit paid off, and the former Cowboys star found himself winning in the betting circuit.
