Dallas Cowboys told they "need to bring back" Ezekiel Elliott after releasing him

The Dallas Cowboys have been told that they "need" to re-sign running back Ezekiel Elliott - just weeks after the team released him.

In a move that had been rumoured for two years, the Cowboys officially cut their long-time offensive leader Elliott just a few years after making him the highest-paid running back in NFL history. It was a move that the team had little choice but to make in order to save money and open up around $6 million in cap space after they decided to re-sign fellow running back Tony Pollard.

But Elliott is still yet to find a new suitor whilst there are also injury concerns surrounding Pollard. Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith, the greatest at the position in Cowboys history, reckons they should look to bring Zeke back.
