Report: Ezekiel Elliott bracing for a suspension


Wonder what the NFL knows or doesn't know and if they are just head hunting for him.

4 witnesses said the girl made it all up and there's texts from the "victim" asking one of the witnesses to lie to police.

This is just the NFL trying to look tough on domestic violence after the Ray Rice fiasco. Of course it's Roger Goodell so it's going to be completely wrong.

Probably for getting named like #26 best RB of all time after a rookie season barely better than Alfred Morris'.

Wildest Cowboy homerism I saw was on /r/NFL where someone was talking about Prescott in the same breath as Brady as a huge draft steal

well, if he was preparing for a suspension I'd say it is all but guaranteed now

Russell Wilson would be the only real apt comparison for recent QB's in terms of round selection and skill set. Wilson has a SB win and what should have been a second, but Dak is definitely setup for success in Dallas right now.

Bruce Allen is a moron. Going public with your offer to Cousins that had guaranteed money that barely even equals this year's tag and next year's transition tag and acting like Cousins' camp is shitty for not responding is just garbage tier. Can almost throw out any of the "positive" talk now. If you want there to be a chance to sign him long term after this season you don't try and make him look like shit in public by crying about your shitty offer they basically didn't respond to.

Welp, Bell tagged today.

Rumors from the guy who has been a Steelers insider forever (Jim Wexell) says he was offered to be the highest paid rb in the NFL and turned it down.

I think they know they can't sign him, and just want to get ahead of the bad pub is all. Dude is headed to San Fran.

Seems like a bit of a risk for Bell. The guy is phenomenal, but he also has a bit of an injury history. It's one thing for someone like Cousins to take a chance on himself, because typically he isn't going to be getting hit nearly as much as a RB.

I really hope it works out for him and he gets paid though. It is really unfortunate for good RB's because they have the shortest career for football players. They come in for super cheap for 4 years (sometimes 5), and then only have a handful of years left while still in their prime.

The problem is they aren't getting ahead of the bad pub. They are making themselves look dumber.

Zeke is just another Buckeye idiot of the highest order. He will deserve the 2-game suspension he gets.

Then he will go on and be the League's leading rusher again after playing a 14-game regular season.

Reports vary on how Cowboys’ Ezekiel Elliott was involved in bar fight

Sounds like there is an eyewitness claiming that Zeke didn't throw the punch. So he may not get in trouble for this. Then again, you never know with Goodell.

LOL...True.

They do know Cousins is gone though, and are in spin mode. WHY fuck with your QB's money if he is even remotely good?

They're just making themselves look bad. Even if he was asking for too much (or didn't want to sign here at all), the deal they offered barely covers what he'll make under the tags this year and next. Why would they even bother to respond?
