Dez Bryant's troubled financial situation could stay murky until he reworks his contract with the Dallas Cowboys to pay off owed money, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Wednesday, citing a source.
Bryant still faces a pending lawsuit in which Eleow Hunt, of Colleyville, Texas, alleges the Cowboys wide receiver and his adviser, David Wells, owe him roughly $600,000 for sports tickets, jewelry and repayment of loans.
Bryant is in the second season of his five-year, $11.8 million rookie deal that he signed in 2010.
Under the new collective bargaining agreement, Bryant is forbidden from renegotiating his rookie deal until after the 2012 season -- his third season -- according to ProFootballTalk.com.
Bryant was paid $2.84 million in base salary and bonuses in 2010 and is set to make $1.1 million this season.
