Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys are back on track. Two consecutive victories over the New York Giants and the Pittsburgh Steelers have put them with a 3-2 record.
Although Dak Prescott is far away from those MVP numbers of 2023, the quarterback has delivered clutch performances in the final minutes to keep Americaās Team alive.
Now, in their quest to the Super Bowl, the Cowboys face a daunting stretch in the NFL. Lions, 49ers, Falcons, Eagles, Texans and Commanders. Thatās why, in this particular moment, chemistry inside the locker room is crucial.
What happened with Ezekiel Elliott and Cowboys?
Ezekiel Elliott sparked a big controversy with the Dallas Cowboys saying he was ādumbfoundedā by his lack of opportunities, especially in the red zone. This was Jerry Jonesā answer to the matter during an interview with 105.3 The Fan.
āThatās an exaggeration. Dumbfounded is an exaggeration. Itās a bad description of how he feels about things. Heās very much aware of the part of the running game that heās involved with, but, more importantly, weāre saving him and we should be. It would be madness just to rely on Rico (Dowdle) for the remainder of the season and into the playoffs. We want to protect Zeke during this particular time as much as anything.ā

When will Dalvin Cook play for the Cowboys?
Thatās the other big question many fans are asking Jerry Jones and Mike McCarthy. Although the running game has improved, Dalvin Cook could be a huge boost. However, the former Vikingsā player remains on the practice squad.
āWeāve got a player like Dalvin Cook out there in the wings that is going to be very material as we go forward. Donāt take that as big news, but weāre going to use them (Elliott and Cook). Thereās no timeline yet for Dalvin.ā
