Contract Disputes Between Ezekiel Elliot and the Dallas Cowboys

Ezekiel Elliot has not reported to training camp, because of a contract dispute with the Dallas Cowboys. Zeke still has two years left on his rookie contract, but he wants to get paid the top running back money that he has rightfully earned!

Currently, Ezekiel Elliot is training in Los Cabos, Mexico instead of Oxnard, CA where the Dallas Cowboys are having their 2019 NFL Training Camp.

Jerry Jones comments didn’t help the situation, when he said, “Everybody knows you can win a Super Bowl without a top running back”. That’s funny coming from an NFL owner, whose franchise won three of the five Super Bowls from having a top running back in Emmitt Smith.

We could see a holdout that carries over into the regular season if Zeke and Cowboys management don’t find common ground in contract negotiations.

Ezekiel has rushed for 4,048 yards, 28 rushing touchdowns, 135 receptions, and 1199 receiving yards, and six receiving touchdowns in three seasons.

Zeke  has even rushed for 983 yards and seven rushing touchdowns after serving a six-game suspension in 2017 that is phenomenal.

The Dallas Cowboys offense needs Zeke to make the offense flow, we have all seen what Dak Prescott looks like without Ezekiel Elliot, the offense looks horrendous.

Only time will tell if both sides will agree on a new contract for Ezekiel Elliot.

DeSean Jackson Reunited with the Philadelphia Eagles

DeSean Jackson was traded back to the Philadelphia Eagles, where he began his career. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traded their deep threat wide receiver DeSean Jackson and a 2019 seventh round pick, to the Philadelphia Eagles for a 2019 sixth round pick.

Jackson averaged 19 yards per catch, which made it a surprise the Buccaneers traded him, especially after losing another productive receiver Adam Humphries in free agency to the Tennessee Titans.

DeSean Jackson has had a phenomenal 11-year career where he has currently 10,261 receiving yards, 589 receptions, and 53 touchdowns.

Some of DeSean best year’s came in Philly, especially where he a career high 1,332 receiving yards, career-high receptions 82, and career-high nine receiving touchdowns in 2013, before he was abruptly released by the Philadelphia Eagles during the Chip Kelly era.

It will be great to see the long bombs Eagles Quarterback Carson Wentz connects with DeSean Jackson. With Alshon Jeffery & DeSean Jackson lining up together, it will give defensive coordinators nightmares to game plan on how to stop both of them.

DeSean Jackson contract was restructured to a 3 year/$27 million deal, right after the trade.
