Dez Bryant's Twitter troll game is in All-Pro form.
The free-agent wide receiver called out his former team with a series of critical tweets aimed at the Dallas Cowboys after they dropped their season opener.
Bryant was released in April after eight seasons with the team and remains unsigned. He has received interest from Cleveland and Baltimore Authentic Kevin White Jersey , but his thoughts were with the Cowboys during 鈥?and after 鈥?their 16-8 season-opening loss at Carolina.
When one fan asked Bryant to have his agent call Cowboys owner Jerry Jones so Dallas could re-sign him, the three-time Pro Bowl selection said he was OK. He also suggested in the same response that he could fit in New England or with the Dallas' NFC East rivals in Washington.
"I rather go somewhere I can show case my skills for real," Bryant tweeted. "If I line up next to Gronk hogan Edelman I'm for sure getting a 1 on 1 match up plus I won't be getting criticized controlled for expressing my love for the game..Washington is cool as well."
When some fans suggested he was just trying to get himself a job, Bryant said he's "not begging anyone," and added in another tweet said he's "not making a pitch."
Bryant had previously been critical of the Cowboys' playcalling on offense, and he was at it again on Sunday.
"It's kind of cool calling out all of the signals and knowing which route players are about run," he wrote.
Bryant later posted a laughing crying face emoji when Cowboys beat writer Brandon George of The Dallas Morning News tweeted that offensive coordinator Scott Linehan declined comment after the game.
After a barrage of tweets, Bryant said he would be done talking about the Cowboys after Sunday .
"If I try to say something good or a factual it always turned out to be negative plus I don't want it to seem that's where I'm focused," he tweeted. "I know the team well so it's hard not for me to speak .. all I ever cared about was winning."
But since the day wasn't over Womens Justin Houston Jersey , Bryant wasn't finished taking shots at his former team.
When someone suggested the Cowboys would have beaten the Panthers if they still had Bryant and kicker Dan Bailey, the wide receiver tweeted: "Real fact."
George tweeted that Jones left the locker room quickly without comment as most reporters were interviewing running back Ezekiel Elliott.
"I love Jerry," Bryant responded. "I honestly don't think HE wanted me gone so I feel his pain."
In one of his final posts of the night , a fan asked Bryant to predict the Cowboys' final record this season.
"I think they are going to be dominant," he said.
Tyler Mahle is pitching well in June. Then again, most everyone is pitching well against the Kansas City Royals this month.
Mahle allowed three hits while working into the seventh, Adam Duvall hit a ninth-inning grand slam and the Cincinnati Reds beat the skidding Royals 7-0 on Wednesday night.
Mahle (5-6) allowed only one runner to touch second base in 6 1/3 innings, matching his career longest start. He is 2-0 in June, allowing two earned runs and 14 hits in 16 1/3 innings.
”I was able to make big pitches Youth James Conner Jersey , get weak contact and guys were able to make plays behind me, and I was able to hold them off long enough for us to score some runs,” Mahle said.
The Royals have lost nine of 10 and have dropped 23 of 33 home games. They have scored 11 runs in their last eight games and 23 in 12 June games. They have scored one run in the past 25 innings.
”We’ve got to be better than that,” losing pitcher Jason Hammel said. ”This losing is getting old.”
Kansas City is hitting .147 this month with runners in scoring position, including 1 for 25 in the past six games.
Duvall greeted rookie reliever Jason Adam with his second grand slam in two weeks, driving a 2-2 pitch over the left-center wall.
”He threw me a couple of curveballs earlier in that at-bat, but I knew he liked his heater,” Duvall said. ”That’s what I was looking for there. It’s a good feeling to come in here and win two.”
Hammel (2-7) allowed three runs on seven hits over 7 1/3 innings. The Royals committed three errors, including two in the seventh helping the Reds score two runs.
”I know guys are not trying to kick the ball Womens Joe Mixon Jersey , not try to misplay it, but at this level those things affect the outcome,” Hammel said. ”That’s the game in a nutshell.”
Alex Gordon, a five-time American League Gold Glove winner, made two defensive gems in the sixth inning. Curt Casali singled off the left-field bullpen fence and tried to stretch it into a double. Gordon threw him out from the warning track for his fifth outfield assist this season and the 85th of his career.
Two pitches later, Gordon made a diving head-first catch of Billy Hamilton’s liner to rob him of a hit.
”The first thing that went through my mind, is no wonder he’s a gold, platinum glove winner,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. ”He’s just so fantastic out there.”
Salvador Perez and Hunter Dozier grounded into double plays to end the first two Royals innings.
Mahle retired 12 of the next 13 batters he faced after Gordon walked in the second inning.
The Royals didn’t have a runner touch second base until Whit Merrifield doubled with two out in the sixth.
