Dallas Cowboys' Jerry Jones: 'We can use Dez Bryant the same way as Julio Jones'

Jones: 'We can use Bryant same way as Julio'

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has outlined his desire to see his side's coaching staff use Dez Bryant the way the Atlanta Falcons deployed Julio Jones.

The Falcons recorded a 39-28 win over the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium as Jones caught 12 passes for 164 yards and two touchdowns to inspire his team to victory.

After watching the wideout dismantle his side's secondary, the Cowboys owner now wants his side to use Bryant in a similar way when he returns to action from a foot injury.

"When you cover [Jones] the way we did in the slot and you don't have a sideline to work with, then it's really very difficult for him not to get the plays," Jones told KRLD-FM.

"My observation, though, my coaching observation - and I'm holding two fingers up on each side - I want to see the way they do Julio, and does anybody want to see us do Dez [Bryant] that way? Is that too elementary?"

The Cowboys are 2-1 in their season ahead of their clash against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
