Did Zeke have any lingering injuries?

[DuncanIso]

Just trying to rule out all thoughts on why he's slowing down. Last season we found out he was banged up, I'm not sure if I saw that he was injured. Did anyone else see anything??

He’s got a lot of rushes on that frame.

His hips, knees, and ankles have been hit thousands of times.

His playing days are likely over sooner than later.

Hes just old. He was never really fast, and then he got slower

He ran a 4.48 coming out of college, that’s pretty fast for a 225lb RB. His issue is loss of burst when he sees the hole!

So pretty much a 4.5 had he not been training for the 40. Wow were the Cowboys stupid.

I remember him having a little fire under him early on, with a little high step - juke move in air that didn't do anything and I thought to myself " It's time to move on."

Maybe he just needs a transmission? He seems stuck in 1st gear.

Wear and tear from college and his first few seasons in the league. It happens. He's an RB. Moving on.

please let Zeke go....he is one tough dude.....and played hurt....but some players can withstand the punishment over 7 years some cant....nothing against Zeke but a whole bunch against mgmnt hanging on

to him too long which we do often

He’s worn down, most RB’s have a shorter shelf-life. I like Zeke but if he wants to still play here, take a pay-cut and be relegated to specific roles.

Hell no. There is no role left for him.

Got his bag from Jerry and has been low key faded ever since.

Yes, since his 3rd season. Time to move on.

Dont care what he ran in shorts. Dude was rarely outrunning anyone on the field.

His injury is called Kellen Moore. Fix that issue you fix Zeke.

Lol Zeke is done, you have no idea what you're talking about if you think Moore held Zeke back

 

[Captain-Crash]

This is the only true representative video of him…..

 

[jwitten82]

Just the knee. There is a ton of miles on him. Very little tread left. Still has good vision but the speed and burst are gone.

In high school, the junior and senior years he had 3957 yards.

At OSU he had 4410 total yards.

At Dallas he has 8262 yards plus 2,336 receiving another 393 + 65 in the playoffs.

That's 19,423 total yards.

I'm wore out just thinking about all that.

Part of it is mileage and part of it is lifestyle. Zeke was known as someone who likes to party, compared to someone like Henry who seems to take care of his body more. Henry has a total of 24,070 yards if you add up his high school, college, and professional years

I know exactly what I am talking about. You need to get a clue about play calling in the running game.
