Former Cowboys Star Joins Patriots in Unexpected Move : Ezekiel Elliott
In a move that’s sent shockwaves through the football community, the New England Patriots have scored big by signing the three-time Pro Bowl running back, Ezekiel Elliott. After weeks of anticipation and a suspenseful free-agent visit earlier this summer, the Patriots have secured the former Cowboys star to join forces with Rhamondre Stevenson, forming a dynamic duo that’s poised to reshape their running game.
Unexpected Addition in Off-Season Shuffle
It’s been an off-season of changes for the Patriots, and this unexpected addition has caught fans by surprise. With Elliott’s arrival, the running back room is getting a serious boost in experience and depth. After parting ways with James Robinson and dealing with injuries to key players, the Patriots have been on the hunt for a seasoned player to complement their up-and-coming talents.
Elliott’s journey to Foxborough began after a cap-saving move by the Dallas Cowboys, who released him with a post-June 1st designation in March. The seven-year Cowboys veteran, once the focal point of their offense, had experienced a dip in performance during the 2022 season. Despite a career-low rushing yardage, Elliott’s knack for goal-line situations remained evident with 12 rushing touchdowns. Meanwhile, Tony Pollard, his backup, shined brightly with an impressive 5.2 yards per rush average, earning him a Pro Bowl nod.
Though some may argue that Elliott’s peak years are behind him, there’s still a lot he brings to the table. His ability to pick up blitzes and serve as a reliable pass protector is a valuable asset. While his explosive speed might not be what it once was, he can still grind out short-yardage gains and make an impact between the tackles. This veteran presence and versatility make him an ideal complement to Stevenson’s dynamic playing style.

Stevenson, who emerged as a force to be reckoned with in his second season, dominated the field in the previous year, amassing over two-thirds of New England’s offensive snaps. The Patriots, cognizant of the need to preserve Stevenson’s energy throughout the season, have brought in Elliott to help balance the workload. By sharing responsibilities, the Patriots aim to unleash Stevenson’s prowess in the passing game alongside budding star quarterback Mac Jones.
The Patriots are betting on the pairing of Elliott and Stevenson to spark a renaissance in their running game. With Elliott’s experience and Stevenson’s explosive talent, they’re positioning themselves for a formidable season ahead. As the preseason unfolds and the regular season looms, all eyes will be on New England to see how this running back dynamic unfolds. One thing’s for sure: the Patriots are making headlines once again, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how this story unfolds on the field.
