Ezekiel Elliott Feeling Much Better
3 years agoDallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) said his injured knee is feeling much better and thinks he'll be close to 100 percent by the start of the playoffs. "I'm very encouraged about the direction it's going. I feel more explosive. I feel faster," Elliott said. Zeke has looked more spry on his bothersome knee in recent weeks, rushing for 89 yards and two touchdowns on 25 attempts in the last two weeks while also catching four of his five targets for 25 yards and another touchdowns. While he's trending up in the injury department, Tony Pollard remains a thorn in his fantasy side and continues to steal valuable touches away from him. In Week 17 against the Arizona Cardinals, Elliott will be a high-end RB2/low-end RB1, but he could disappoint if he doesn't find the end zone again.
