Elliott missed the first two preseason games out of precaution because of a sore hamstring, but he is ready to officially don the Cowboys blue star for the first time. If Ezekiel is tested and comes back with a positive for marijuana use, he could get suspended for several games. Now if only the Cowboys can find a way to keep the 36-year-old Romo upright. Really just couldn’t imagine getting that hand dealt to us. It’s easier to embrace contact when your offensive line allows you to get to the second level almost every run, but blasting defensive backs at every turn is also the type of mentality that translates to games that count. So again, I’m aware of it.
