Former Cowboys star Dez Bryant was handcuffed outside a Southlake restaurant Sunday after a traffic dispute escalated into a confrontation. Police said callers reported an argument and a possible weapon. No firearms were recovered. Bryant says another man threatened to shoot him. He acknowledged knocking a phone from the man’s hand and was released with an assault-by-contact citation. Now look at how these officers are treating people. American citizens, handcuffed on the pavement. Rifles out. Being told to “shut up.” Once people have been checked for weapons and secured, why keep them on their bellies with their hands cuffed behind their backs? Why not let them sit up while you sort out what happened? That position is humiliating. Keeping people there should require a safety justification—not simply an officer’s willingness to leave them on the ground. I’m disgusted. Yes, many football fans will be concerned because it’s Dez Bryant. I’m more concerned with how police are treating citizens of this country—human beings. Nobody should have to be famous for us to recognize that this is wrong. Watch the video. Use your eyes. Join me in denouncing this conduct. It is dehumanizing and wildly inappropriate. 🎥 OutKick | @dezbryant
