The Dallas Cowboys are welcoming back a very familiar face. The NFC East team has signed Ezekiel Elliott for the 2024 NFL season, and the team’s fans wasted no time reacting to the news on social media.

Ezekiel Elliott has returned home. The running back has agreed to terms with the Cowboys for a new deal that will keep him with the Lone Star club for the upcoming campaign, adding more firepower to Dak Prescott’s offense.

Last offseason, the Cowboys decided to part ways with Zeke, who played the last campaign with the Patriots. However, he was eager to return to Dallas, and fans are loving this move by the team’s front office.

On the Cowboys’ official Reddit page, fans engaged in discussions about Zeke’s arrival. While some users defended him, citing his strong partnership with Dak Prescott in recent years, others expressed doubt, suggesting that he may not be the running back capable of leading them to success.
