Micah Parsons on Zeke's new haircut and signing with Patriots: Zeke is going for 2k yards

[Pass2Run]

The players here absolutely love Elliott. I think he was a good locker-room guy. It's only here that he gets branded as trash. I wish him well, except when he plays us.

Yeah, Zeke is a good guy, and player. He was too high for us.

 

[shabazz]

I like the new doo Zeke! Good luck and thanks for most of the memories

Yup, the hair is fresh…….just wish somebody would have popped that puss filled white head on his nose before snapping the pic

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

All new zeke .

wow .

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Zeke will probably average about 5 yds per carry there.

Big mistake letting him go

By October....all the Zeke bathers in here will be wishing he was back. Sometimes a known commodity is needed

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

I reckon zeke will get those 5 yards per carry , and get injured.

 

[dcstar]

more like 2 yards in a cloud of dust...

Walt Garrison was always good for 3 yards n a cloud of dust.

Go Cowboys!

I think with the coaching staff appear in New England he’s going to have an excellent season

 

[KJJ]

The Zeke bashers better cool it, the Cowboys have to play New England in week 4. His legs should still be pretty fresh by then and you know he’s going to be motivated to play the Cowboys. One could only imagine the complete meltdown on this board if he were to have a big game leading to a Patriots win. Lol It wouldn’t surprise me if he has a pretty good season with New England if he can stay healthy.

 

[America's Cowboy]

he looks like someone that was just told he's got to get a job and work now, instead of playing video games in his moms basement.

Agreed! Robert Kraft and Coach Belichick don't mess around.

Zeke's contract is basically $3 million if he plays every game.

He got a $600k signing bonus, $1.55MM salary if he does not get hurt before the season starts, $850k roster bonus or $50k per game.

He can earn another $3 million in incentives for yards from scrimmage and playing time. It is graduated but basically if he gets 975 scrimmage yards he gets $300k. If he gets 1475 yards from scrimmage he gets $1.5 million. There are intermediate targets between those points worth $300k each.

He can earn another $1.5 MM if he plays 70% of offensive snaps. ($300k for 50%, and another $300k for every 5 percentage points over fifty up to 70%.)

The Patriots really protected themselves with this contract. I am sure Dallas could have come up with a similar contract to keep him, maybe even for more money. Clearly, they want to move on.

Based on his history, Elliott should get some of the yards from scrimmage incentive money. Last year in 15 games he had 968 yards from scrimmage. The prior year he had 1289 (worth $900k on his new deal), and in 2020 he had 1317 in 15 games (again worth $900k)

The question is how much will the Raiders play him. I suspect he will not get more than 55% of their offensive snaps and if he gets hurt and misses a couple of game he won't get to 50%.

Will be interesting.

He cut his hair and beard long before they signed him.

 

[plasticman]

Why didn't he get 2k for the Cowboys?

Takes a 70% cut in pay but now he's gonna get it?

 

[America's Cowboy]

He cut his hair and beard long before they signed him.

Too bad it took a hard look at reality and suddenly being unemployed for he to get much more serious with the image he was portraying.

 

[viman96]

Zeke looks pissed off like his mom made him cut his hair!

Welcome to a NFL franchise and not a Country Club. Do your Job! In NE the Head Coach is in charge of football and the QB if meeting standards can be field Leader.

Most them like him personally and also understand how much he sacrificed his body for the game.

I'm just glad that he did it.
