Ezekiel Elliott Is 'a Keystone Player' for Cowboys, Says HC Mike McCarthy

While there have been rumors swirling about Ezekiel Elliott's future in Dallas beyond 2022, Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy reiterated the veteran running back's importance to the offense while speaking with reporters Wednesday.

"Ezekiel Elliott is one of our rocks on this team," McCarthy said. "He's a keystone player. … You need those types of individuals to win championships."

Yeah, Keystone Cops, maybe.

Have to feel bad for Zeke. Clearly he is trying to slim down and transform his game into a more cerebral/finesse style. I've seen lots of power backs try to do the same thing when they get into their late 20s when their bodies can no longer dish out the punishment and put the fear into defenders. Zeke just doesn't have that niftiness and ability to make defenders miss like an Emmitt Smith. He's not special in that regard and probably will never be that.

I still like him as a compliment back though - just not his contract!

I would be greatly surprised if he was on the roster in a year from now.

I'm just concerned about this year....

Hope he plays well, and they redo his contract and he is here in the future.
But that contract is turrable!.

I don't blame MM, what's he supposed to say? I'm fine with him pumping sunshine as that's his job.

If Zeke plays great on the field, play him. If he doesn't, sit him. Easy as that.

 

[88sAndHeartbreak]

Yeah right, he is too expensive to keep. No matter how good does this year, he's gone...

True.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Excuses. If he couldn’t play then he should have sat down. Roughing it out to help us lose hurts the team.

 

[Direwolf63]

Yeah, Keystone Cops, maybe.

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

The 14 penalties , inability to open holes and failure to stop Debo hurt the team NOT ZEKE

On with your crusade Bro

EE knows 2022 could be his swan song in "Big D".
I think he will have a memorable and notable season to being an alltime Cowboys RB - that also contributes to perhaps a great team accompishment.
