LOGAN, Utah – Former Dallas Cowboy and three-time NFL Pro Bowl wide receiver Dez Bryants praised Jordan Love as an “elite QB” in a post on Twitter.

Bryant expressed his impression of Love on Saturday, January 4.

The former Dallas wideout tweeted that “whoever drafts Jordan Love from Utah State… you got yourself an elite QB.”

Bryant played for the Cowboys from 2010-17. He was drafted with the 24th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. During his NFL career, Bryant was named first-team All-Pro (2014), led the league with touchdown receptions in a season (2014), and was named to the Pro Bowl three times.

Love announced on December 10, 2019, that he would forgo his senior season at Utah State to enter the 2020 NFL Draft.

In his junior season, Love threw for 3,402 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 17 interceptions. He had a completion rate of 61.9 percent.

The QB broke the Aggies’ school record for total career offense in the Tropical Smoothie Cafe Frisco Bowl against Kent State.

Love will find out where his professional career begins during the 2020 NFL Draft in April 2020. The draft is scheduled to be held from April 23-25 in Paradise, Nevada.

He will have the opportunity to impress NFL scouts and improve his draft stock at the Senior Bowl on January 25.
