According to a report by Josina Anderson of CBS Sports, the Dallas Cowboys are currently in talks with Ezekiel Elliott’s agent. The departure of veteran running back Tony Pollard, who signed with the Titans in free agency, has opened up the possibility of Elliott returning to the team. It was previously reported by ESPN that both parties have expressed interest in a potential reunion.
Ezekiel Elliott was drafted fourth overall in the 2016 NFL draft and spent seven seasons with the Cowboys before becoming a free agent in 2023. During his time with the Cowboys, Elliott was a standout player, earning Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors. His best season came in his rookie year when he rushed for 1,631 yards and scored 16 total touchdowns. However, his performance declined in recent years, with only one 1,000-yard season since 2019. Despite this decline, fans are excited about the possibility of Elliott returning to the team.
