The Sports Editor of the Longview News-Journal says the Cowboys' receiver from Lufkin will be suspended.

Here's what Jack Stallard told KETK about Dez Bryant and his arrest...

"Unfortunately, when we're talking about Dez Bryant, he's someone who has gotten away with a few things because he's immature. People look the other way and say, oh, that's Dez. Now we're looking at some criminal stuff.  This is going to haunt him for a long time. NFL players can get by with a whole lot. But not something like this, putting your hands on a woman, especially your mom. He needs to get some different people in his life, some people who will stand Dez up against a wall and say you're about to lose everything. He's getting close to us hearing about Dez in a very bad way if some things don't change. It's a shame. He's a phenomenal talent who has gotten by with some stuff up to this point. I don't think this is one he can laugh off. This one is going to hurt him in suspensions and that will cost him a lot of money. That will get him very close to the point that Dez Bryant is out of football for good if some things don't change."
