Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant wants to pay back his debts, according to his adviser. Two lawsuits emerged this week alleging Bryant owes more than $850,000, not including damages or legal fees, from jewelry and tickets to sporting events purchased on credit, as well as unpaid loans. "We'll get them all settled and dealt with," adviser David Wells said Wednesday. "We want to move on, that's what we want to do. We're working on it." Wells also told ESPN 103.3 FM's Ben & Skin Show and guest Deion Sanders on Wednesday that Bryant, who had a strong rookie season, was "in a dark place." "I talked to him yesterday and he wants to get past this," he added. "He wants to get all these deals past him and closure. He's in a dark place in his life. Until you find that light, you're going to continue to be in a dark place."

One day after a civil lawsuit was filed against Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant saying he owed $246,000 worth of jewelry to a New York-based company, another civil lawsuit has emerged against him and his adviser David Wells. Eleow Hunt, a jeweler and ticket broker, said Bryant hasn't paid for jewelry and tickets to sporting events or repaid personal loans that collectively total in excess of $600,000. The lawsuit says that Bryant, who was about to become a junior at Oklahoma State when the spending spree allegedly began, was supposed to repay Hunt when he signed either an NFL or promotional contract, whichever came first.

Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is being sued for non-payment of $246,000 worth of jewelry by a New York-based company in a civil suit filed Friday in Dallas. Bryant purchased $267,000 worth of jewelry from A+A Diamonds LTD. "Is there a relationship between Dez and the jeweler? Yes," Bryant's attorney, Texas state Sen. Royce West said. "The issue is how much is owed and when it's due. That's the issue. I think we'll solve it quickly." Bryant's most expensive purchase was a $60,000 custom charm bracelet. He made the purchases on four different days last year.

Dez Bryant is welcome to shop at the mall again after NorthPark Center officials dropped their ban on the wide receiver. Bryant was ejected from the upscale Dallas shopping center last Saturday and given a criminal trespass warning following a dispute over the sagging pants allegedly worn by him and some companions. "Mr. Bryant is welcome to join the millions of valued customers who shop and dine at NorthPark Center," mall spokesman David Margulies told The Dallas Morning News on Friday evening. "NorthPark Center considers last weekend's issues to be closed." Bryant apologized via Twitter this week. "To all my fans I apologize for what's been going on...the situation is behind me..moving forward to this upcoming year," he tweeted Friday.

Deion Sanders strongly criticized Dez Bryant in reaction to the criminal trespass warning given to the wide receiver over the weekend at a Dallas mall. Sanders stopped mentoring Bryant months ago. "I'm upset but not surprised whatsoever," Sanders said on The Ben & Skin Show on ESPN 103.3 FM in Dallas. Sanders described Bryant's behavior at NorthPark Center as "ignorant." The 2010 first-round pick was issued the warning after an off-duty police officer requested that Bryant and his friends pull up their pants because their underwear was showing and Bryant responded with repeated profanity, according to the police report. "He needs help. He needs help," Sanders said. "I told the Cowboys from Day One that he needs help. Matter of fact, they have a team in place to help him. But you cannot tell a grown man what to do."

The Cowboys are among the five teams that the NFL has either fined or told is under investigation for violating offseason rules prohibiting contact with players before team activities are allowed. The story was first published in The Dallas Morning News. According to the newspaper, several Cowboys players have mentioned meeting with new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan to get a head start on learning his system. Since the lockout began, no contact between the league's 32 teams and players has been allowed. Players aren't paid and can't negotiate new contracts. They also aren't allowed to use team facilities.

Two teams have inquired with the Cowboys about the 9th overall pick in next month's NFL Draft, according to owner Jerry Jones. "I've already had the opportunity to discuss and have been approached by two separate clubs," Jones said. "And not just a general 'Would you take who? Would you be interested?' Because they know you wouldn't be doing your job if you wouldn't be interested in looking at any opportunity you might have regarding a draft pick or a trade." Dallas executive vice president Stephen Jones has said the team has to get the best player available at No. 9. It remains to be seen if the Cowboys are serious about the possibility of trading the pick.
