Patriots rusher Ezekiel Elliott expects there will be 'some emotions' when he plays against the Cowboys, his former team, for the first time Sunday.
Nine days before Elliott was released, the Cowboys placed the $10.09 million franchise tag on running back"I talked on the phone with Mr. Jones and he told me what was going on and that he didn't necessarily want to do it but it's just part of the business," said Elliott, who signed a six-year, $90 million extension in 2019.
He did not sign with the Patriots until Aug. 16 -- after training camp had started. In three games with New England, Elliott has 122 yards on 28 carries and has caught six passes for 21 yards.Cowboys linebackersaid Elliott's"presence and the joy he brings to the locker room," is missed.
