Cowboys look for reset at running back in draft

Cowboys look for reset at running back in draft

The Dallas Cowboys had to reset at running back eight years ago, when they drafted Ezekiel Elliott fourth overall and watched him lead the NFL in rushing twice in his first three seasons. Dallas is at No. 24. Another part is the Cowboys aren't so sure a dominant back is the way to go, particularly after Elliott's expensive extension in 2019 was never matched by his production. "You have complementary backs in this league," executive vice president of personnel Stephen Jones said.
