Jerry Jones’ Statement on Zeke Release

[Coogiguy03]

Some of you posters get more joy out of the negative than positive….

Merry Christmas!!

He would be a good acquisition.

Do you think he and Pollard are the same player??

 

[Jason 82 Witten]

You can get a good running back in the draft

Do you think he and Pollard are the same player??

Oh no. Tony Pollard has jets that Miles Sanders does not. Sanders can power through more clogged holes than Pollard could but Pollard still holds the edge for penetrating a clean gap in the line a tenth of a second quicker.

Normally I wouldn’t offer friendly advice to Jerry Jones for obvious reasons, but why not? He is sad today.

Jerry….stop getting emotionally attached to anyone that plays the running back position.

To a 1 day deal to RETIRE AS A COWBOY!!

The only way he is a Cowboy again and I'm fine with that.

Oh wow gotcha nice break down

I like this guy!!!! Lol

I completely agree. Just the sad truth. It's still a business.

Zeke is a progress stopper and his contract hurts the salary cap.

 

[Cmac]

I appreciate you, Zeke.

Thanks for the memories and best of luck going forward.

Agree.....Zeke was the Fall Guy and took heat for this team's failure. Best of luck to Zeke and thanks for never complaining when the offense ran you in the ground, and for playing hurt.

Jerry has a way with words.. Great Statement..

 

[JBond]

Shocked.

Why? He was a drag.

 

[Fontaine]

Love Zeke, always will…his legs just ran out of juice, it’s truly a shame how short RBs are in their prime for.

 

[Proximo]

Any sense that his market might be so limited that re-signing him remains an option?

One of the first thoughts that occurred to me as well.

Of course I don’t know what Zeke is thinking, but logically speaking I could see him trying to come back if the offers he gets from other teams are equal to or not much greater than whatever Dallas would be willing to pay him.
I get the feeling he enjoys being in Dallas, and having a presence in that community.

That was not written in Jerry Jones' syntax. In my opinion, Jones provided input and someone else constructed that release based on what he wanted to say.

 

[Cowboys93]

Wonderfully said. Ultimately we’d all love to see him win a ring, but a ring is not the sole factor determining what a successful tenure with the team is.

 

[iceberg]

WHY? we need to learn to let go.

 

[cityochamps]

Depending on how the draft shakes out and pollards recovery, I could absolutely see them bringing him back during the season

and if that does not happen:

 

[Motorola]

If Elliott is not on an NFL roster at the start of the 2023 season -
Cowboys should choose a home date in September or October - and ask Elliott would you like to come back and be feted the week before leading up, and during that game.

 

[Vtwin]

Shocked.

Why? I've always been a Zeke fan.
