  • Cowboys to deploy RB-by-committee for 2024 season 

    "It's as natural of a transition that you'll ever see," said McCarthy. With Rico Dowdle coming off of a career season and having also re-signed on a one-year deal, the current depth chart elevates Dowdle to the role of RB2 — that is if you're thinking of it in the traditional sense. When asked if he believes the two-time former NFL rushing champ can return to that form, McCarthy said it wouldn't be "fair" to ask or expect Elliott to suddenly become the 2016-ish version of himself again. "We're running back by committee," McCarthy explained.

"It's definitely good to see TP get paid," said Elliott.
