The Dallas Cowboys have taken steps to ensure that the incident involving Dez Bryant and a reporter never happens again, but did they go too far?
According to some very frustrated reporters, the Cowboys have cracked-down on what can and can not get out of that locker room via social media — even ceasing live-tweeting at practice.

How are we supposed to know who Dez scuffled with, if Clarence Hill can’t get it to us as soon as it happens.
There’s more, and more reaction as well.

I understand trying to keep a lid on the drama or extra-curricular, but these reporters and columnist have jobs to do, regardless of how irate Dez Bryant or Greg Hardy or at the time.
I mean the idea that you can’t tweet out what you think a players injury is, and length of time missed is absurd. I just hope Jerry knows what he’s doing.
