Cowboys Reunite with Running Back Ezekiel Elliott

Former Rushing Champ Returns to Dallas on Reduced Contract

The Dallas Cowboys are reuniting with running back Ezekiel Elliott after agreeing to terms on a contract with the former two-time rushing champion, according to an individual with knowledge of the deal. Elliott, once the Cowboys' highest-paid running back, comes to the team with a lower price tag this time around.

Elliott's Decline in Production

The 28-year-old running back had a disappointing performance last season, rushing for only 642 yards and three touchdowns on 184 attempts - all career lows. Questions have been raised about his ability to maintain his previous level of production as he enters his seventh NFL season."
