CINCINNATI — Dez Bryant wasn’t around long, but he certainly left his mark with his New Orleans Saints teammates.
As promised, Saints running back Mark Ingram flashed Bryant’s trademark “X” symbol with his arms in the end zone after scoring on a 28-yard screen pass in the second quarter Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Running back Alvin Kamara also did the Bryant celebration after his rushing touchdown in the second quarter.
Bryant tore his Achilles tendon in practice Friday, just two days after agreeing to a one-year contract with the Saints. The former Dallas Cowboys star was placed on injured reserve Saturday, ending his 2018 season before it even began, and a doctor told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Bryant faces a “tough rehabilitation.”
He took to Twitter to show his appreciation for Ingram’s celebration and retweeted a number of photos of both Saints players making the sign.
That’s love brotha @MarkIngram22 keep killing!!! #WhoDatNation https://t.co/jtbT6Lwhst

Ingram’s touchdown also marked the 508th touchdown pass of Drew Brees’ career, tying him for second place all-time with Brett Favre. Peyton Manning holds the NFL record with 539 career touchdown passes.
