Desmond Demond Bryant (born November 4, 1988) is an American former professional football wide receiver who played in the National Football League (NFL) for nine seasons, primarily with the Dallas Cowboys. He played college football for the Oklahoma State Cowboys, earning consensus All-American honors as a sophomore in 2008. Bryant missed most of his junior season due to violating an NCAA bylaw.
Bryant was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft, where he earned three Pro Bowl berths and was named an All-Pro in 2014. After eight seasons with the Cowboys, Bryant was acquired by the New Orleans Saints in 2018, but suffered a season-ending injury two days after signing with the team. After a year away from the NFL, Bryant signed with the Baltimore Ravens in 2020, where he was primarily a backup and alternated between the practice squad and the active roster.
