Following his less than stellar campaigns, Elliott aims to bring his A-game back to Dallas, the city where his star once shone the brightest.
As Elliott makes a return to Dallas, it”s worth noting that the mainstay, Rico Dowdle, holds promising potential.
The sturdy back steadily ran for 361 yards in the previous season. His decisive display of determination and agility left many fans anticipating a more prominent role for him in the upcoming seasons.
Speculators posit that Dowdle could even become the Cowboys” lead back, considering his fresh legs and intimate experience with the team.
Elliott expressed his excitement about reuniting with Dowdle in the forthcoming NFL season. “Rico definitely had a great year last year — finally got his health together,” Elliott said. “He was able to showcase his ability. He runs the ball super hard, and that”s something I love about his game. It”ll be fun to play with Rico [again] this year.”
Despite having to reestablish his prowess on the field, Ezekiel Elliott is undeterred and embraces a leadership role in the backfield corps.
His dedication and experience mould him into the elder back amongst the Cowboys. Although he may be seen as past his prime by some, Elliott”s inclusion in the Cowboys could provide essential guidance for newer talents like Deuce Vaughn and Royce Freeman.
The Cowboys welcome new talents to invigorate their lineup. Deuce Vaughn and Royce Freeman have now joined ranks within the Cowboys” locker room.
With these fresh faces alongside veterans like Elliot, we can expect some innovative plays and a dynamic running game this season.
