Overview

• The 29-year-old running back remains a free agent as training camps near with no NFL teams publicly courting him.
• Social media rumors began Friday suggesting Elliott may retire, though he and his agent have not made official statements.
• Elliott was released by the Cowboys last December after a season in which he rushed for a career-low 226 yards and three touchdowns.
• He entered the league as the Cowboys’ 2016 first-round pick, led the NFL in rushing in both 2016 and 2018, and earned multiple Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors.
• The league’s devaluation of veteran running backs and his accumulated wear from 2,139 career carries contribute to uncertainty about his next step.
