Watch: Dez Bryant Sets Dallas Cowboys Record for Most Touchdown Catches
Dez Bryant made Dallas Cowboys history on Thursday night by hauling in a 13-yard touchdown pass from Dak Prescott.
It wasn’t just a regular score. The TD reception gave him an astounding total of 72 in his playing career and put him at No. 1 in touchdown receptions in Dallas Cowboys history, passing Hall of Famer Bob Hayes in the process.

Despite a relatively quiet season thus far, Bryant’s impact is undeniable. He draws double coverage in most schemes, thanks to his insane leaping ability he showed off against the Redskins. So when Washington went man coverage in the red zone, Dak Prescott made the simple decision to loft it up to his top man.
Here’s a look at some of the names Bryant has passed along the way to earning the remarkable feat.
| Player | Years Played | Touchdowns |
|---|---|---|
| Dez Bryant | 2010-current | 72 |
| Bob Hayes | 1965-1974 | 71 |
| Jason Witten | 2003-current | 67 |
| Michael Irvin | 1988-1999 | 65 |
| Tony Hill | 1977-1986 | 51 |
