CelebnSports247.com reports that back in 2019, Ezekiel Elliott forced the team to sign him to a massive deal as he stayed away from the team heading into the season, because he was unhappy with his current deal.
Well it appears to many people, paying Ezekiel Elliott has backfired as the team now sees that the Cowboys offense goes nowhere without Dak behind center. A year ago, Zeke scored a $90 million dollar contract deal resigning with the Cowboys.
Now people are having a problem with Elliott since he has not stepped up at all with Dak Prescott being out for the year in 2020.
Marcus Spears feels that is further proof that the team made a mistake by giving Elliott a massive contract and letting Prescott play under the franchise tag.
Spears, who played for the Cowboys, said on Tuesday’s edition of “Get Up!” that it infuriates him that Jerry Jones paid Elliott.
Marcus said:
It further p—es me off. We’re talking about Zeke Elliott getting his money after going to Cabo and Dak Prescott still doesn’t have his check. It is crazy to me that that is transpiring.
Zeke was supposed to be the shining armor with everything that transpired. He was supposed to overcome the offensive line (problems). I know it’s a tough situation for Zeke Elliott, but he was supposed to be the mainstay and the catalyst around the turmoil that’s going on in that franchise right now. He’s not living up to it.
