On Monday, the Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was examined. The results showed that he had sprained his right knee (MCL). The news came after the Cowboys’ victory on Sunday over the Detroit Lions. It is a piece of deplorable news for the Cowboys fans. According to Physicians, the injury is a Grade 2 Sprain. It means there is a moderate sprain with an MCL rupture. Additionally, the thigh is damaged as well.

In the last season, the running back sustained a partially ruptured posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. This prevented him from playing in the last season. However, he played all the games wearing a brace at the end of the season. But people were especially worried this time.

People assumed the worst when Elliott hurt his leg in the second quarter of the Detroit Lions game. It appeared to be a crippling hit. According to a person with knowledge of the incident, Elliott’s injury would have been significantly worse if his foot had remained on the ground. Elliott came back into the game and finished with 57 yards and two scores on 15 carries. Elliott finished the second half with 29 yards and two touchdowns after suffering the injury.

Will Ezekiel Elliott play against the Chicago Bears?

Will the 27-year-old play against the Chicago Bears or not is still unsure. But it has become a hot subject since the news about his injury broke out. However, the HC of the Cowboys came out with fresh development.

Dallas’ next best option would be Tony Pollard if Elliott is unable to participate. On 67 carries, he has 375 yards and two TDs.
