Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is in good health heading into the regular season after sitting out the first three preseason games with a strained hamstring.

The talented wideout tweaked his hamstring early in training camp and has been virtually held out ever since. Bryant targeted Saturday night's preseason matchup with the Vikings as a return date, but head coach Jason Garrett decided to hold him out.

"I didn't think it was worth having him play six or eight plays in this ballgame," Garrett said after the game, via ESPN Dallas. "We didn't practice [Friday]. He warmed up before the game. He'll have off tomorrow and then we don't practice until Monday night. So we'll take him day-by-day and give him every chance to be healthy when he comes back."

With quarterback Tony Romo in for the third preseason game and Bryant out, the Cowboys offense still clicked at time. As long as the offensive line blocked, Romo had plenty of time to hit receivers in stride. It would have been nice for Romo to get game action with his main target, but No. 9 understands the situation.

"I think you always want to [have some preseason work], but I also think that we understand the situation and where it's a long season," Romo said. "We've got to ensure that he's not having to deal with this all the time, and hamstrings are a very tricky deal. So you'd rather be safe than sorry."
