Video: NBC Sports-Will Ekekiel Elliott be suspended for incident at festival-Pro Football Talk

[ShortRound]

I'd shop him around, two 1st round picks

Impossible, petty suspensions like that only happen to the Cowboys.

That seems a pervasive thought among Cowboy fans, but really the suspensions are overwhelmingly from drug offenses, which are based on testing and not at the whim of the league or commissioner.

Yea lets let the best running back and one of the best players in the league who we invested the 4th pick in the draft on walk away.

Championship!!!!

Elite RBs don't bring championships.

You won't get two first round picks for him, but you might get a team that believes they are a piece away to give up one first round pick and maybe a second or third along with it.

It’s absurd to think we are always the “victims”. Zeke got screwed the first time but so have other teams and players. Zeke also hasn’t done himself any favors since his suspension.

The same fans that complain we’re in the news all the time are the ones that like to flaunt we’re “America’s Team”. The Cowboys are one of the most popular teams but they only acknowledge the negative media and fail to mention how there are more tv shows, sports writers, radio shows, etc that give us more attention, both GOOD and bad, than any other team. We even competed for most prime time games when we were irrelevant but they had no problem with that.

The blinders and hypocrisy by some of these fans is ludicrous. It makes me wonder if they walk around in real life constantly playing the victim, feeling sorry for themselves and always making excuses.

just saw a guy got suspended to 2 games for a trespassing arrest....id say that is probably zeke number too

He's was lucky it didn't happen in Texas, he would have been shot, instead of beaten with a vacuum

According to a police report from the arrest, Kelly stumbled into the house of someone he didn't know and proceeded to sit on their couch, which was especially alarming to the people living there, because they were also sitting on the couch. Kelly, who was dressed as a Cowboy, was also mumbling "incoherently." Kelly eventually left the house when one of the residents started hitting him with an aluminum vacuum tube.

Zeke needs to grow the F up and learn how to drink more responsibly but it would be a total joke if he got suspended for bumping into some one.

 

[Jipper]

But trespassing is actually against the law. And charges were probably filed.

No charges against Zeke, but of course that doesn’t mean anything to the Idiot dictator in charge of the NFL.

yup I agree 100 percent but problem is that zeke has already been suspended before so he has less leeway...i would say it's at least 1 but likely 2

It wasn’t heavy contact, but it wasn’t just bumping into someone as if they were two guys passing in a crowd and the contact was accidental. Zeke drunk and acting like a jerk

Bumping into someone or intentionally turning around, confronting and trying to intimidate the guy? If Zeke did that to me it would have been a full blown brawl, then who would be guilty? He might have been able to whoop this guy but if the security guard had fought back it would have all been on Zeke for physically initiating it and would have been a much bigger deal.

No matter how big or small, you don’t put your hands on someone else unless you feel threatened. People who do that fall into a certain category that include thug, bully, entitled, etc.

I like how many people try to minimize this but reverse the roles. If some guy turned around and walked up to Zeke, hardly “bumping” him, and Zeke layed him out how many of you would say the other guy initiated it? I would and I would also rarely support Zeke in that case. But nooooooooo....poor Zeke was innocent and didn’t do a thing, it was all TMZ’s fault.

Has the league announced they are looking into this issue?

If so, where can one find the official comment this is being investigated?

If not, why sweat the small shate?

Just because sports outlets are making an issue of this doesn't mean shate to a tree. (Jefferson Airplane referencing the song Eskimo Blue Day)

This is the slowest month and a half of the off season. There is no real news, so these outlets just speculate. Just to have content.

But sure as shate people here are wringing their hands over something that has not been determined as yet. Not even a hint the league is looking into this.

8 pages in this thread. Just useless blather.

Lol, dude sounds like a nice guy. It’s not like he intentionally tried to intimidate them, he got a little confused and wound up on their couch. I would have served him a drink and put him in my guest bed to sleep it off. I would just stay up all night so he didn’t damage my house or slit my throat and hopefully we could have a cup of coffee and laugh it off in the morning.

In case you haven’t noticed, pretty much every thread on this site is speculation or recollection which is all “useless blather”.

Elite RBs don't bring championships.

Well then I guess we should cut him then.

No point in having any elite players that don’t bring championships. Let’s cut LVE and Jaylon while we are at it. Elite Lbers don’t bring championships. Heck we can save a few pennies and not pay Cooper also since elite WRs don’t bring championships either.

Championship!!!!

 

[risco]

ended up being a stupid video! LOL.

No single player brings championships.

Kicked off Clemson's football team for arguing with coaches, arrested for a bar fight in Buffalo, and while watching a high school football game, a fight breaks out on the field and he runs out to join the fight against a bunch of teenagers.

Yeah, cmon on in drunk, incoherent stranger and have a seat right next to my wife and child.

You neglect the fact that we are installing a different offensive scheme with KM, and all the rbs rostered will be involved even our FB for the first time, finally

I forget nothing you forget when the real hitting starts all the talk abut the new RBs will die out and feed me will be fed plenty LOL back with Dmarc same crap all the talk about lightening loads using RB2 and 3 etc etc..I hope they utilize them more and find way to get Zeke rest so playoff time or 2min drills hes fresh..
