The Dallas Cowboys are expected to part ways with Ezekiel Elliott after seven years.
Elliott has spent his entire seven-year NFL career with the Cowboys, who selected him with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft. He immediately emerged as one of the NFL’s top running backs, leading the league in rushing with 1,631 yards and 15 touchdowns as a rookie. He was selected to three Pro Bowls in his first four years with the team.
Over the past three years, however, Elliott’s performance has declined. He averaged a career-low 3.8 yards per carry in 2022 as he ran for 876 yards and 12 touchdowns on 231 attempts. Tony Pollard, who was recently franchise-tagged by the Cowboys, had surpassed Elliott as the team’s top running back and is set to make more than $10 million in 2023, making it unsustainable for the Cowboys to pay Elliott $16.
