3X Pro Bowl Free Agent Angrily Denies Participating in ‘Rookie Dinner Tradition’ After 49ers’ Veteran Lands in Trouble for Same Reason

The Rookie dinners happen to be a long-time tradition in the NFL, where the newcomers please their veterans, treating them grand in the first season. However, things went south inside the 49ers squad, where the rookies arranged a dinner party and in return, received a humongous bill. While this story took rounds on the internet, former WR Dez Bryant came up clean, admitting that he would never do anything like that.

Rookie dinners might be the only time in the season when youngsters try to stay low, especially in front of the Vets. However, things never go as expected, and the Rookies often spend lavishly on their first party. The 49ers being a close-knit squad, there was no change in plans, and the defensive squad arranged a meet-up.

The second-round pick of the 2022 NFL draft, Drake Jackson, happened to be the man in the spotlight after receiving a bill of $322,391.05.

Interestingly, $200,000 of which was the tip, and a small chunk around $7500 was the actual price of dinner. As the news gained traction in the social media world, one of the fans poked Dez Bryant to react, asking him whether he had such dinners.

“NEVER! I NEVER GOT DOWN LIKE THAT, I TOOK CARE OF MY ROOKIES ASK THEM… I MADE SURE THEY PUT THE BEST FILM OUT JUST IN CASE THEY DIDN’T MAKE IT IN DALLAS… MOTIVATE AND FOREVER ELEVATE NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES… 49er VET PLAYERS WRONG FOR THAT,” Bryant wrote on Twitter.

Surprisingly, the bill was actually a manipulated one, with veterans like Arik Armstead playing their juniors. The defensive lineman revealed their pranks on Twitter later on. It shows how bonded they are in such a short period. No wonder why they rank No 1 in limiting their opponents from progressing. The Niners recently secured their division title, and this defensive unit played a major role in the success.

The former wide receiver happened to be an entertainer during his playing days and an innocent soul of course, who didn’t wait for the reality check. Meanwhile, fans melted down at his post and enjoyed the Niners moment.

The 49ers are one of the strongest Super Bowl contenders this season. With a season record of 10-4, they are progressing toward the playoffs eying for the ultimate title. Despite losing two of their starting quarterbacks, Brock Purdy has been managing the position. Without any doubt, he is just nailing it. What do you think about the dinner incident?
