Football is nearly back, with preseason action set to begin Thursday night. In the meantime, Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant is here to hold us over before Jimmy Garoppolo and Mark Sanchez kick off the preseason.
Actually, watching Bryant catch touchdowns with one hand during practice might be more fun than watching backups battle it out. On Thursday, Bryant submitted a late bid for the best catch of training camp.

Dez Bryant is good at football. It's been confirmed:
So, for once, the question isn't if Dez caught it, the question this time is if his one-handed grab beats the catch Broncos receiver Jordan Taylor pulled off at the end of July when he did his best Odell Beckham impression:

After further review, I'm giving the edge to Taylor, mainly because nobody had ever heard of him before he made that catch. Bryant, on the other hand, is so famous he's not just known for his miraculous catches, he's perhaps just as well known for his non-catches.
Anyway, does anybody else miss real football yet?
