Ezekiel Elliott won’t be part of the Dallas Cowboys in 2023 as he’s set to be released by the NFC East team. However, he could find a new team soon as a recent Super Bowl champion is reportedly very interested in signing the running back.
For the first time in his career,Zeke will play for a new NFL team. Even though he signed a 6-year extension with Dallas in 2019, both sides were unable to reach an agreement to reconstruct his contract to complete it.
There’s no doubt that the running back will have a lot of teams interested in him. However, reports say a recent Super Bowl champion could be winning the race to sign Elliott for the 2023 campaign.

After seven seasons with the Cowboys, Ezekiel Elliott will try with a new squad in 2023. Dallas was not very comfortable with the running back’s contract details, so they are set to release him soon.
But it seems that it won’t take long for Zeke to find a good landing spot. Of course there are a lot of doubts regarding his health, but he’s still a very dominant running back and multiple teams need him for the upcoming campaign.
Now, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers appear as the top contenders to get Elliott. The Super Bowl LV champions just released Leonard Fournette, so they see Zeke as the best replacement for him.
Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reported that the Buccaneers are “expected” to go after the 27-year-old. Unfortunately, it won’t be the only squad interested in Zeke, as teams like Bills, Texans, and Bengals are reportedly also following him closely.
