When he isn't playing actual football, dazzling Oklahoma State fans with touchdown catches and home-run punt returns, Dez Bryant is a champion of his favorite pastime – video-game football.
So it thrilled Bryant to be featured on the EA Sports NCAA Football 10 television commercial, which ends with the Cowboys' All-American junior wide receiver celebrating a touchdown in the end zone.
While Bryant's video likeness has a prominent role in the commercial, he, just like any other gamer, had to pay the retail price for his copy.
"I've already played an entire season of the game," Bryant said. "I played as Oklahoma State, of course, and we went undefeated."
In Bryant's video season, the Cowboys finished 14-0 and captured the BCS national championship. In a 48-27 title-game victory over Virginia Tech, Bryant had four touchdown receptions.
