Does former Dallas Cowboys star running back Ezekiel Elliott finally have a new home?

Has former Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott finally found a new home?

Elliott is visiting with the New England Patriots on Saturday, a source confirmed.

It’s the first visit for Elliott since he was cut by the Cowboys on March 15 because of declining production to save money against the salary cap.

The former two-time NFL rushing champ, who was picked fourth overall in 20216, tallied a career-low 876 rushing yards in 2022.

Elliott was set to count $16.7 million against the salary cap with a $10.9 million non-guaranteed base salary in 2023. He was released as a post-June 1 cut, allowing the Cowboys to save nearly $11 million against the 2023 cap.

The Cowboys elevated Tony Pollard to the starting role after break out 2022 in season when he made the Pro Bowl for the first time.

Pollard was given the $10.1 million franchise to replace Elliott’s salary as well as his role as the featured back.

Elliott, age 28, finished his career with the Cowboys as the team’s third all-time leading rusher with 1,881 carries for 8,262 yards and 68 rushing touchdowns.

He also caught 305 passes for 2,336 yards and 12 touchdowns.

Rhamondre Stevenson is the starting running back for the Patriots. But depth behind is thin.

Elliott scored 12 rushing touchdowns in 2022 and remains a strong short-yard and goal-line running back, a role he could fill with the Patriots.
