After the score, Bryant pointed to the sky and went down on one knee, remembering his late father in an emotional moment.
After the game, he posted this touching tribute on Instagram.
Bryant also thanked rookie safety Kavon Frazier on Twitter, saying the Cowboys “are a family.”
It was an emotional day for Bryant, which included receiving the game ball for his performance during a difficult, emotional time.
Thank you Kavon and you are exactly right... we are a family https://t.co/2gwjxkkhQl
