according to NFL insider Jordan SchultzThis will be the first known visit that the running back has had with a team since being released by the Cowboys in March,New England also reportedly has Dalvin Cook on its radar as an addition behind expected starter Rhamondre StevensonIt was once thought Dallas would bring back Elliott under a lower salary, but that has seemed less likely in the past few months and he has since made a three-team wish list that includes the Jets, Bengals and Eagles.
The three-time Pro Bowler had been with the Cowboys since he was drafted in 2014 by the team in the first round as the fourth overall pick. Ezekiel Elliott carries the ball against the San Francisco 49ers during the second half in the NFC Divisional Playoff game at Levi’s Stadium.No season has surpassed his rookie year, though, where he racked up 1,631 yards for 15 touchdowns while averaging 108.7 yards per game.
Elliott, 27, hit a career-low 876 yards last season for 12 touchdowns and was a part of the Cowboys’ weird season-ending game in the divisional playoff round against the 49ers, where he played center in the final play that posed no threat to the 49ers’ 19-12 lead.
