Ezekiel Elliott was a superstar during his seven years with the Dallas Cowboys, leading the entire NFL in rushing twice and earning Pro Bowl honors three times. And it sounds like the team is running it back.

With Tony Pollard leaving the team in free agency this offseason, the Cowboys found themselves in need of help at the running back position, so they’re turning to a familiar face, signing Ezekiel Elliott back to the team.

“He’s back: The #Cowboys have agreed to terms with their former star RB Ezekiel Elliott, per me and @TomPelissero, as the ex-rushing champ now gives Dallas a proven weapon in the backfield. The two sides met in person on Wednesday, and pending physical, it’s happening,” NFL insider Ian Rapoport said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.

“Reunion: Three-time Pro Bowl RB Ezekiel Elliott agreed to terms with the #Cowboys pending physical, sources tell me and @RapSheet. With Tony Pollard gone and Elliott coming off a strong finish to his lone season in New England, it’s time to Feed Zeke again in Dallas,” NFL insdier Tom Pelissero said.

Elliott played his first seven seasons with the Cowboys, but the two sides decided to part ways last offseason leading Elliott to ultimately sign with the New England Patriots.

We’ll have to see how Elliott performs this time around.
