From the Star-Telegram:

“You should never be satisfied,” Bryant said. "Nobody. Never get comfortable. That’s when you start falling downhill. Like I said, you’ve got to always have room to grow. I have a lot. I feel like I have a lot of room to grow. I’m going to continue to keep doing that, enjoying this game, living to make plays.”

Bryant played in the first quarter of Saturday’s preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens and had three catches for 59 yards and a touchdown.

Dallas opens its season on Sept. 7 when the team hosts the San Francisco 49ers.
