Dez Bryant Says He’ll ‘Stomp’ Nicki Minaj’s Husband After She Offers $10 Million to Bryant to Fight
Nicki Minaj and Dez Bryant are trading jabs online—and the beef could result in a real-life brawl.
According to TMZ, the feud began when Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones expressed his aversion to dealing with agents during contract negotiations, as Jones is currently working out Cowboys star Micah Parsons’ agreement.
Jones referenced having to handle Jay-Z while settling Bryant’s deal back in 2015. Bryant caught wind of Jones’ comments and responded on X.
“JERRY JONES I DONT THINK ITS SMART TO MENTION MY NAME,” Bryant wrote. “I KEPT QUIET ABOUT A LOT OF UNFAIR SHIT.. ON SOME G SHIT… WE CAN HAVE STORY TIME IF THATS WHAT WE ARE DOING.”
Minaj jumped into the discussion at the mention of Hov. She has claimed for a while now that he and Roc Nation owe her money after selling Tidal in 2021.
“Hey, its Nicki Minaj,” she wrote, responding to Bryant’s tweet. “How about we play a game? Every time you do a ‘Jerry Jones; or ‘NFL’ story time, I’ll do a ‘story time’ of my own.”
After a riveting back-and-forth between Bryant and Minaj—detailed below—the Pinkprint rapper offered the NFL pro “$10 million in cash” to fight her husband, Kenneth Petty. Bryant quickly fired back.
“I’ve been lied on my whole career so I’m not trying to hear all of that shit..I thought we was speaking facts.. I don’t play all of that funny shit… go get that 10 million in cash,” Bryant said. “I’ll stomp that n***a out right in front of you.. and it’s ROC for life bitch.”
Prior to Nicki’s multi-million dollar offer, Bryant defended himself when the rapper resurfaced old claims that he allegedly assaulting his mother in 2012. He threw back in Minaj’s face that her husband, Petty, is a convicted sex offender.
At the beginning of their feud, Dez issued a video to Minaj and said he’s a fan, but it didn’t stop her tirade.
“Look, Miss Nicki, leave me out of it,” Bryant said. “I don’t want no problems. I’m a huge fan. I hope you’re having a great day.”
Minaj also tweeted, “I hope Jerry Jones is having a great day,” alongside a GIF of herself.
Jones is in the middle of contract negotiations with Parsons, who, according to CBS Sports, requested a public trade. Jones is reportedly trying to negotiate with Parsons directly and isn’t willing to work with his agent.
Jones explained his reasoning to reporters and compared the situation to Hov acting as Bryant’s agent 10 years ago, alleging that at some point, Jay stopped taking Jones’ calls.
“Because when we have a problem with the player, the agent is nowhere to be found,” Jones said.
“Jay-Z said that Dez would make all meetings. Jay-Z and I negotiated the contract, spent hours,” Jones continued. “He said, ‘Anybody in my organization is on time.’ He said, ‘My office used to be on the street corner, and I’ve always been early. So, they will be on time.’ And what did I say? I said, ‘I’m going to call you [when I have a problem].’ He quit taking my call.”
