"That's a tough loss. You can't replace Dez Bryant," quarterback Tony Romo said after the 27-26 victory this week (via ESPN). "I hurt for him, right now, because I know how much he loves to play this game. You need guys to step up. No one is going to be Dez Bryant, but the guys can do what they do well, and that's my job is to help that whole situation."

According to Fantasy Pros, the Cowboys have a week six bye, so the team could hold Bryant off of the field until week seven. Terrance Williams is expected to see a lot more action and Cole Beasley could be a good choice from Flex positions.

You might want to trade or pick up these players, but also be aware that Romo's main target is out for a while, so he might not get as much passing points in some leagues.

Though he left the game early with the injury, video footage from after the game showed the star player celebrating his team's win. Check out this video right here.

Though he could miss many week, Bryant is hopeful he'll return soon. He took to Twitter to reassure his followers (via NFL).
