Dez agrees with Jones' claim Cowboys haven't had No. 1 receiver in years

Dez Bryant and Jerry Jones agree on one thing: the Dallas Cowboys do not operate with a traditional No. 1 receiver.

Following the Cowboys' overtime loss to the Texans on Sunday, Jones marveled at the game-changing talents of Houston's DeAndre Hopkins.

"A true No. 1 (receiver), you saw one the other night. You see (Falcons') Julio Jones, you see players like that. In my mind, every team doesn't have a true No. 1 receiver," the Cowboys owner said Monday, according to Kate Hairopoulos of the Dallas Morning News.

"When you put it in that class, those guys that just absolutely change the ball game with where they are. And that hasn't been our case for several years here that we've had a true No. 1, not a true No. 1."

Bryant featured for the Cowboys for the past seven years and became the franchise leader in receiving touchdowns. He appeared to initially take umbrage with Jones' comment.

Idk what Jerry meant by that #1 WR but I'm damn for sure would have kept them chains moving...

However, a day later, the wide receiver agreed with his former employer's assessment.

As a receiver playing for the Dallas Cowboys your mind have to be right because you will never see targets like Ab Obj d hop none of those guys..I was never schemed into things I made things happened through out my career I'm mr 73.. they had J Witten as our #1 so Jerry is right

Bryant was released by the Cowboys in April and maintains he will sign with a team at some point this season.
