Cowboys news: How to handle the Ezekiel Elliott situation?

Will Ezekiel Elliott Hold Out?

It's beginning to look like more than one star running back will be holding out when NFL training camps start up next month.

First, the Chargers' Melvin Gordon announced that he'll hold out until he's given a new deal or traded.

Now, PFT reports that Cowboys runner Ezekiel Elliott has been saying privately that he'll hold out for a new contract as well.

The Cowboys are currently working on signing QB Dak Prescott to a long-term deal that will likely be in the $30 million per year range. Meanwhile, Elliott is reportedly being investigated for a recent incident where he was handcuffed after shoving a security guard at a Las Vegas music festival.
