Ezekiel Elliott Rejoins Dallas Cowboys on One-Year Deal

The running back returns after a stint with the New England Patriots, aiming to bolster the Cowboys' backfield.

Ezekiel Elliott signs a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys, marking his return to the team after playing the 2023 season with the New England Patriots.
Despite past declines, Elliott's return is seen as a strategic move by the Cowboys, who did not draft a running back in 2024.
The deal, valued at up to $3 million, reflects a cost-effective strategy by the Cowboys amid other offseason changes.
Elliott's experience and familiarity with the team's dynamics are expected to play a crucial role in the upcoming season.
The Cowboys' backfield currently includes Rico Dowdle and Royce Freeman, with Elliott likely to lead.
