Cowboys Acquire Former Pro Bowler
April 29, 2024 08:55 AM
After weeks of speculation and negotiation, Ezekiel Elliott and the Dallas Cowboys have reached an agreement on a new deal, bringing the former Pro Bowler back to the NFL. It's no joke, folks! Despite the April 29 date, this is not a belated April Fool's prank.
The Cowboys and Elliott have been in talks for months, with both sides eager to find a mutually beneficial agreement. Elliott was a key piece of the Cowboys' success in recent years, leading the league in rushing yards in 2016 and 2018. However, the running back was also set to become a free agent this offseason, making his return to Dallas far from guaranteed.
In the end, the Cowboys were able to sign Elliott to a deal that reportedly includes a base salary of $12 million per year and a signing bonus of $20 million. The contract is believed to be for four years, with an option for a fifth year that could keep Elliott in Dallas through the 2028 season.
The Cowboys' decision to re-sign Elliott is a major statement of intent. The team is clearly committed to winning, and they believe that Elliott is a key part of their plans. With Elliott in the backfield, the Cowboys offense should remain one of the most potent in the NFL.
