Signed by Cowboys Zeke and Cowboys have agreed to terms

[Whyjerry]

Imagine the downgrade in skill and production between Zeke and Pollard. Plus Pollard was hurt to start last year. Zeke has zero burst anymore. He is a plodding goofball.

 

[Whyjerry]

In all seriousness, I'm glad to have him back. We need a physical back, and he can at least handle that.

Dowdle is a physical back. Dallas needed speed.

 

[Streifenkarl]

But all jokes aside, the main problem I had with him was his contract. If he doesn't hurt us this time, I don't care. Maybe he does have something left.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Im fine with this. He’s not an RB1 anymore but I think he still has something left. Hes a cowboy. Not sure why people hate Zeke now.

This ^^^^^ pretty sure the FO, Zeke and everyone else know he's no longer an RB1 player but pass protection, short yardage, red zone, 3rd down are areas he can still help.

 

[Carson]

Welcome back Zeke. Let’s do work

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Lmao. I don’t mind him coming but he should have came back as a 2nd or 3rd string. We’re so trash he’s coming to compete for the starting job.

Let's be real, he's not coming in here to compete for the starting job, JJ brought him in to be the starter.

 

[infamousstyles]

I'm starting to come to terms that with a Jones name at the helm of this franchise we may never win a superbowl again.

dear lord

Maybe next week Tony, then D. Ware, Too Tall and hell while they are at it bring back Roger!

 

[McMicah]

Just in case people are keeping score:
1) Let Emmitt Smith go (who gave you 3SBs) who is still functional, because he’s in decline
2) Let Demarcus Ware go (who went and won a SB) because he’s in decline

Now….

Let Zeke (who had been in decline for 3 years and not even the best RB on the team) go for salary cap reasons, stating you still think he’s a starter, watch him prove he’s completely washed in NE, and THEN resign him to a comparable value as actual decent RBs in FA…

This FO has lost its mind

 

[McMicah]

Maybe Jerry is masterful.......having a Fall Guy to distract from the managerial dysfunction. Let's blame Zeke again.

Singing Zeke IS managerial dysfunction

 

[John813]

I've heard Stephen say Jonathan Taylor's deal is the floor.






jk

 

[nate dizzle]

I expect big things from Duece.

Why

 

[chicago JK]

I hope they realize nothing is fixed. I think Zeke can still have a role with an NFL team, but not the role where he should get anywhere close 10 plus carries a game.

 

[Miller]

Last night there was an interview/presser with Jerry and Stephen and they were joking how they had beers with him and his agent and how they’ve both given A lot to each other with a wink, wink to his salary. It’s like a joke to them. Clown show

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Dowdle is a physical back. Dallas needed speed.

Good point, then again, I suppose Vaughn counts as speed?

 

[Brooksey]

Zeke is a tough, inside, short yardage runner and he's a good pass protector.
He will soften them up, Dowdle and Duece will have easier sledding, like Pollard did.

I hate it like anyone else, but we'll have to hope for the best

SOMEONE just kick me already please!!

Doesn't matter will they give him the majority of the carries
