The Dallas Cowboys could be forced to cut their star running back Ezekiel Elliott ahead of the 2023 season if he does not agree a new contract with the team.
In 2019, Elliott signed a six-year extension $90 million deal to stay with the Cowboys, a deal which has been much-maligned by fans with the running back's decline in play. Elliott remains one of the better running backs in the NFL but is seen as an overpaid player in the hard salary cap league.
The Cowboys are looking to keep Elliott on the team for next season, but hope that he agrees a pay cut and a new contract in order for them to make further moves to their roster, it is being reported.
