See you Sept. 11, Dez. (AP Photo/Roger Steinman)Mike Fisher of 105.3 FM radio in Dallas reported Tuesday morning that Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant suffered a concussion in practice on Monday, meaning he won’t play in Thursday night’s preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told the station later Tuesday that Bryant and starting defensive end Tyrone Crawford, who suffered a concussion during practice Sunday, are “being monitored” and “it shouldn’t impact them over the long haul.” Crawford will sit out Thursday’s game, as well.
