Ezekiel Elliott's agent, Rocky Arceneaux, told ESPN that the running back felt disrespected by the comments made by team owner Jerry Jones. Jones asked reporters 'Zeke who?' when asked about the team's starting running back. (ESPN)

Fantasy Impact:

This continues to be at a standstill, and given what we saw with Le'Veon Bell last season, fantasy owners that continue to draft Elliott in the first round are taking on risk. He could certainly be worth it, since if he had a contract in hand he'd be atop many expert's rankings. Still, the threat of missed games appears to be real. The holdout also gives appeal to current backup running back Tony Pollard who has been running as the starter in Zeke's absence.
