Ezekiel Elliott and the Cowboys parted ways this offseason, seven seasons after Dallas selected him with the No. 4 pick in the 2016 NFL draft.
On Monday, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones discussed the league’s devaluation of the running back position in recent seasons, before making a stunning admission about the organization’s decision to pick Elliott in the draft.
Jones admitted that the Cowboys reached a bit too early when selecting Elliott in 2016, via Clarence Hill Jr. of Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
