The Dallas Cowboys and running back Ezekiel Elliott agreed to a six-year, $90M contract extension in the early hours of Wednesday morning, according to multiple reports. He is expected to practice today and play Week 1 against the New York Giants. (NFL.com)

Fantasy Impact:

Elliott's contract situation has been well-documented over the last few weeks, with reports over the last two days indicating that a deal was getting close. This deal makes him the highest-paid running back and ties him to the Cowboys contractually for the next eight seasons. He is still one of the most reliable RB1 options in fantasy, especially now that he is not expected to miss any regular-season games.
