Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant believes that it would be a good move for the NFL to have a London franchise following the success of the International Series.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has claimed that it would be good for the NFL and London to have a franchise based in the United Kingdom.

The Cowboys recorded a 31-17 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the International Series, and Bryant put in an excellent performance as he scored two touchdowns to end his side's two-game losing streak.

The 26-year-old revealed that he greatly enjoyed the experience, and feels that a franchise in London would be a positive move for everyone involved in the NFL.

Bryant told reporters: "[It] Could be good. Obviously, London, I loved it. It can only get bigger. You know, the NFL is the best.

"I saw a lot of different jerseys out in the crowd. It just goes to show you that the NFL is all over the world and it would be great for London to have a team over here."

Bryant has recorded 56 receptions for 793 yards along with eight touchdowns for the Cowboys this season.
