In 2016, Elliott teamed with quarterback Dak Prescott to create a dynamic rookie pairing that led the Cowboys on an eleven-match successful streak and the top seed in the NFC playoffs.
Early in Elliott's occupation, he was a real workhorse back again. He handled three hundred-furthermore carries in a few of his very first 4 more seasons, and the sole reason he did not reach that mark in his 2nd season was a 6-game suspension he served for violating the NFL's particular conduct coverage.
