Romby Bryant signs Free Agent deal with Arizona Reply
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Former University of Tulsa receiver Romby Bryant was not selected during the 2004 NFL draft, but has agreed to a free-agent contract with the Arizona Cardinals.
Bryant did not immediately return a Sunday telephone message, but he got a nice offer from the Cardinals, according to TU coach Steve Kragthorpe, a former Buffalo Bills assistant coach. Kragthorpe said Bryant's deal is "a lot better than what we would have given a free agent in Buffalo."
One reason Bryant was considered a pro prospect was because of his speed. He averaged a team-best 15.9 yards per catch last season while helping the Golden Hurricane go 8-5 and reach the Humanitarian Bowl.
He caught 47 passes for a team-high 748 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior, earning second-team All-WAC honors.
Bryant is an Oklahoma City native who played at Western Heights High School. He spent two seasons at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M before transferring to TU.
