RELEASED The Cowboys have released Ezekiel Elliott

[Cwby41]

Elliott asked to be released and the Cowboys granted his wish. This guy was a drain on this team from day one and Jerry caved to him every time. Good Bye and good luck.
Remember first 2 years waiting to get suspended than getting suspended than holding out in Cabo I would of ran him into the ground and than traded his *** that next year.
We bring him back this year and he misses meetings comes late and than asks for his release with one game left.

 

[CCBoy]

He was a football player and he was a Cowboy. To this fan team means something. Thanks for trying and taking it, Sir.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Why would he ask to be cut now though?

He's got some New Years Eve parties to attend and doesn't want to show up to Practice...

 

[ShortRound]

Waste of a signing

 

[Risen Star]

LOL

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on the team’s release of Ezekiel Elliott:

“Out of respect and appreciation for Zeke and wanting to provide him with an opportunity to pursue any potential playoff participation possible, we are releasing him from the Cowboys roster today. As I have said many times previously, Zeke’s impact as one of the greatest to ever play with the Star on their helmet will never change and is etched in our record books and history forever. We thank him, love him and wish him the absolute best.”

 

[ATXSRT]

Just waiting on the off-season vids of him training so Jerry can resign him lol

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I agree.

But he likely knows this is his last run. Likely tries to latch on to a practice squad for the playoffs and steal a ring

maybe Ogre Campbell will pick him just to bend us over again

 

[Tabascocat]

I always liked Zeke, hope he goes and gets a cheap ring somewhere

 

[exciter]

seems silly to do it now

He asked!

 

[maryquality]

Wow! This is a surprise. I wish Zeke well.

Why can't they do that for Dak?

 

[Surfguy]

Jerry will probably re-sign him before next season.

 

[links18]

Team is so soft

Damn, Zeke is right up there with Emmitt and Dorsett in Jerry's eyes. He loves his adopted sons, I guess.

 

[Johannes44]

Why can't they do that for Dak?

That would require a front office that had more balls and a degree of vision.

 

[Cowboys93]

is this their way of admitting they were wrong? Or are they going to spin it as letting a beloved Cowboy seek a playoff run elsewhere

Omg they did it LOL

Cue the Celine Dion music; old man has gone soft.

 

[The Natural]

He should be halfway through a Hall of Fame career. He was unstoppable at Ohio State and looked like the second coming of Emmitt Smith his first three years.
It was very disappointing to see his elite talent fade.

He was never the same after forcing himself to play while injured in 2020 I believe. Coaches should have had the sense to sit him, but here we are.

 

[infamousstyles]

"We wish him the absolute best a second time". I really hate our front office.
