NFL Note - Dallas Cowboys Elliott, Ezekiel

Pro Football Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson offered a bit of advice for fellow RB Ezekiel Elliott. Tomlinson told the Star-Telegram of Fort Worth that the Dallas Cowboys star needs to continue to improve regardless of what he has achieved in his NFL career. "You've got to continue to challenge yourself and be honest with yourself in many different ways," Tomlinson said. "The offseason was my time to dissect my game and I was hard on myself. I attacked the things I needed to get better at." Tomlinson was also extremely critical of Elliott last season after the latter appeared to quit on an interception during the Cowboys' lopsided loss to the Denver Broncos. "He can impact that 53rd man just like he can the quarterback," Tomlinson said of Elliott. "I think he understands what he means to the Dallas Cowboys." Elliott had a sensational rookie season in 2016 when he was the NFL's rushing champ with 1,631 yards, and had 983 yards and seven touchdowns last season despite playing in just 10 games. He missed six contests for violating the league's personal conduct policy, stemming from domestic violence allegations in July 2016.
