Ezekiel Elliott's suspension appeal hearing in New York will stretch into a second day, a source informed of the situation told NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport on Tuesday.

After lasting nearly 10 hours on Tuesday, Day 2 of the appeal hearing will resume on Wednesday and possibly a Day 3 on Thursday, Rapoport reported on NFL Total Access. The Dallas Cowboys running back is attending the appeal, which is being heard by arbitrator Harold Henderson. Elliott is scheduled to testify under oath at the hearing, Rapoport reported.

The NFL suspended Elliott six games on Aug. 11 for violating the league's personal conduct policy. The ruling came after the NFL's year-long investigation into domestic violence accusations made against him by Tiffany Thompson, who identified herself as his former girlfriend to authorities.

Elliott, 22, has denied the allegations. He was never charged or arrested.

If Elliott's full suspension is upheld on appeal, he would be barred from taking part in any team activities starting on Sept. 2. He wouldn't be eligible to play until the team's Week 8 contest against the Washington Commanders on Oct. 29.

Poor Zeke. He actually thinks he has a chance with this.

This is like appealing a decision from Hitler via a hearing with Goebbels.

Henderson dropped Hardy's suspension from 10 to 4 games

EE could have his reduced to 2 games to be more in line with recent DV cases

The NFL only needs the headlines...... the retractions get buried...... they have already milked the EE headlines

I read ya but getting any suspension and the reputation damage for a domestic violence he didn't commit doesn't seem acceptable to me.
