A Deal Set in Motion

In a move that will surely generate excitement among Dallas Cowboys fans, the team has agreed to terms with running back Ezekiel Elliott. The deal, pending a physical, marks the return of a multi-time Pro Bowler to the franchise where he made his name.

A Prolific Career in Dallas

Elliott spent five seasons with the Cowboys after being drafted fourth overall in the 2016 NFL Draft. During that time, he established himself as one of the league's top running backs, earning three Pro Bowl selections and rushing for over 1,000 yards in each of his first four seasons. He also led the NFL in rushing in 2016.

A Season in New England

Elliott signed a one-year contract with the New England Patriots in 2023, where he remained a key contributor. He finished the season with 184 carries for 642 yards and three touchdowns. However, his return to Dallas suggests a desire to reunite with his former team and make another run at a Super Bowl.

The Cowboys are optimistic about Elliott's return, believing he can regain his Pro Bowl form and provide a boost to their offense. The team is also eager to see how he fits into their new-look offense, which features quarterback Dak Prescott and a talented group of receivers.

A Full Circle Moment

Elliott's return to Dallas is a full circle moment for both the player and the franchise. After five successful seasons in the blue and silver, he gets a chance to rewrite his legacy and help the Cowboys achieve their ultimate goal of winning a Super Bowl.
