The Cowboys released their longtime running back on Tuesday.</p><p>Dallas only released Elliott after he <a href="https://x.com/JosinaAnderson/status/1874197064567185780" rel="noopener">made the request</a> to the front office, per NFL insider Josina Anderson. He will now hit the waivers, where he can be claimed by any team looking to add backfield depth ahead of the postseason.</p><p>Up until his release, Elliott recorded just 74 carries for 226 rushing yards in 2024. He served primarily as a short-yardage back behind Rico Dowdle, who took over as the team’s starter in Tony Pollard’s absence. He recorded double-digit carries in just two of the team’s 16 games.</p><p>As the season progressed, Elliott’s snaps continued to decrease. He saw just four total carries in the two weeks prior to his release as the team began to use return specialist KaVontae Turpin more in the backfield. In Week 15, the game immediately after the Cowboys were eliminated from the playoffs, Elliott played in a <a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/E/ElliEz00/fantasy/2024" rel="noopener">season-low five percent</a> of the offensive snaps.</p><p>Elliott re-signed with the Cowboys ahead of the 2024 season after a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/patriots-news-new-england-lands-ezekiel-elliott-after-weeks-dalvin-cook-rumors">one-year stint with the New England Patriots</a>. He was originally drafted by the team with their fourth-overall pick in 2016 and spent the first seven years of his career with Dallas.</p><p>Although the reunion was not as glorious as Cowboys fans hoped for, Elliott has still had one of the best careers in franchise history. His 8,488 rushing yards with Dallas are the third-most in team history, behind Hall of Famers Emmitt Smith and Tony Dorsett.</p><h2><b>Ezekiel Elliott seeks third team in two years after Cowboys release</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Jerry-Jones-shoots-down-concerns-over-Dallas-running-back-depth-chart.jpg"><figcaption>Scott Galvin-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>At 29, Elliott’s best days are firmly behind him, but the former All-Pro is still in search of his first ring before he officially hangs it up. Once he is officially released, Elliott will look to sign with his third different team in the past two seasons.</p><p>Elliott’s numbers have steadily decreased over the last four seasons. He has not reached the 1,000-yard mark since 2021 and has seen his efficiency drop with each passing year. He has also failed to average over 4.0 yards per carry since the 2021 season.</p><p>As a Patriot in 2023, Elliott ran for 642 rushing yards behind Rhamondre Stevenson.

This victory was extra meaningful for Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliot, who is closing in on Cowboys’ history and put a bad drought to bed.</p><p>“Ezekiel Elliott with the 1-yard TD run ups Dallas’ lead to 20-7 with 1:45 left in the half. It’s Elliott’s third rushing TD of the season and 71st of his career. Only <a href="https://x.com/toddarcher/status/1871023261259088038" rel="noopener">Tony Dorsett (72) and Emmitt Smith (153)</a> have had more in Cowboys’ history,” Todd Archer of ESPN reported.</p><p>In addition to bringing him within a touchdown from overtaking Dorsett for the No. 2 spot on the Cowboys’ all-time rushing touchdowns list, Elliot’s one-yard scoring run ended his AT&amp;T Stadium touchdown drought that extended back to the 2022 season.</p><p>Elliot <a href="https://x.com/statmusefb/status/1871023572329881799" rel="noopener">had not scored at home</a> since December 2022, according to StatMuse. That touchdown came in the first quarter of Dallas’ 40-34 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Christmas Eve.</p><p>The Cowboys have not had a 2024 campaign to write home about as they sit at 7-8, third place in the NFC East, only beating out the 2-13 New York Giants, and eliminated from playoff contention. Despite this, Elliot’s Week 16 success could provide him with motivation to finish the season strong.</p><h2><b>Cowboys playing hard to salvage Mike McCarthy’s job</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Ezekiel-Elliott.jpg"><figcaption>Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Despite their 2024 season not having the outcome expected of them, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-jerry-jones-immediate-reaction-mike-mccarthy-performance-week-16-win">Cowboys do not appear interested in going out quietly</a>.</p><p>After a 3-7 start to the season, Dallas has won four of its last five contests, including two wins over playoff contenders Washington Commanders and the Buccaneers.</p><p>Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy has often been under scrutiny throughout his tenure at the helm of the franchise, but he does not appear to have lost the locker room, as his team is still putting its best foot forward each week.</p><p>The Cowboys’ final two games of the season put them up against the Eagles and Commanders. Winning both games would give Dallas a 9-8 record to end the season as well as shake things up in the NFC standings as the regular season comes to an end.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is a two time All-Pro selection and three-time Pro Bowl player. Given Elliott’s accomplishments in the NFL, have you ever wondered what kind of cars he drives? Well, wonder no more. Here is Ezekiel Elliott’s incredible $801K car collection, with photos.</p><p>According to online outlets, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ezekiel-elliott-net-worth">Elliott has a net worth</a> of around $35 million. With plenty of cash at his disposal, it isn’t surprising to see the Cowboys player <a href="https://vipfortunes.com/car-collections/check-out-nfl-star-ezekiel-elliott-s-expensive-car-collection" rel="noopener">splurge on some nice rides</a>.</p><h2><b>5.

Although it’s the cheapest car in his garage, the Corvette Z06 isn’t cheap by any means. In fact, it’s considered to be one of the most powerful sports cars in the market today.</p><p>Boasting of sleek and sporty features, Elliott should have no problems cruising around the city with style. Furthermore, the Corvette Z06 was simply designed to dominate the streets with its elite performance.</p><p>The Corvette Z06 operates on a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 powertrain. This allows it to produce 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. Moreover, with a seven-speed manual transmission, this sports car can speed up to 197 mph. On the other hand, it can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just three seconds.</p><h2><b>4. Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_dodge_durango-srt-hellcat-awd_img_2432-1-09525.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_dodge_durango-srt-hellcat-awd_img_2399-09884.webp?w=620"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_dodge_durango-srt-hellcat-awd_img_2396-06738.webp?w=939"></figure><p><a href="https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2021-dodge-durango-srt-hellcat-awd-27/" rel="noopener">For more photos, click here</a></p><p>Another solid car in Elliott’s collection is the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat. For this bad boy on wheels, the former First Team All-Pro selection shelled out around $80,995. It’s safe to say that the Durango SRT Hellcat is one of the highlights of Elliott’s garage.</p><p>In terms of features, the Durango SRT Hellcat may possess size. However, it doesn’t take away the vehicle’s acceleration abilities, which is the Durango SRT Hellcat’s main attraction. With plenty of size, cargo space and leg room shouldn’t be a problem.</p><p>The Durango SRT Hellcat is built with a 6.2-liter Supercharged Hellcat V8 powertrain. This allows it to produce 710 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque. Furthermore, the Durango SRT Hellcat can go as fast as 180 mph with the help of an eight-speed automatic transmission. In addition to this, it has no problems going from a standstill to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds.</p><h2><b>3. GMC Yukon</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2022-GMC-Yukon-Denali-XL-front-cabin-carprousa.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2022-GMC-Yukon-Denali-XL-profile-2-carprousa.webp?w=600"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2022-GMC-Yukon-Denali-XL-feature-carprousa.webp?w=1020"></figure><p><a href="https://www.carpro.com/vehicle-reviews/2022-gmc-yukon-denali-xl-review">For more photos, click here</a></p><p>The second SUV in Elliott’s car collection is a GMC Yukon, which retails for around $81,000. While the Yukon is a respectable full-sized SUV, it does hold some forgettable memories for Elliott.</p><p>While driving the Yukon, Elliott ran a red light leading to a car accident while running late. The incident forced the two-time NFL rushing yards leader to cough up $33,000 in damages and injuries to an <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cowboys-news-ezekiel-elliott-sued-1m-for-role-in-car-crash">owner of the BMW after the latter filed a lawsuit</a>.</p><p>Nonetheless, the GMC Yukon is a full-sized SUV, making the roomy interior its main highlight. However, given that Elliott faced a huge controversy with this car, it’s safe to say that it’s not one of his favorites.</p><p>The Yukon gets its power from a 6.2-liter V8 engine. This allows it to produce 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. With a 10-speed automatic transmission, the Yukon can attain a top speed of 112 mph. In terms of acceleration, this full-sized SUV can move from 0 to 60 mph with ease in just over six seconds.</p><h2><b>2. Bentley Bentayga</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_bentley_bentayga-speed_dsc_0063-13-38057.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_bentley_bentayga-speed_dsc_0007-13-37942.webp?w=620"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2021_bentley_bentayga-speed_dsc_0001-11-37894.webp?w=940"></figure><p><a href="https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2021-bentley-bentayga-speed/">For more photos, click here</a>.</p><p>Given that Elliott is a fan of SUVs, the Bentley Bentayga certainly has its place in Elliott’s car collection. For this icon of luxury, Elliott had to pay around $231,825.</p><p>While showcasing the highlights of a Bentley, the Bentayga surely performs well on the road while providing the best comfort. The Bentayga is easily one of the priciest SUVs in the market today, given how it was meticulously designed to near perfection.</p><p>Equipped with a 4.0L Twin-Turbocharged W12 engine, the luxurious SUV has 600 horsepower and 568 lb-ft torque. With an eight-speed automatic transmission, the SUV can reach a top speed of 190 mph. It can also accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds.</p><p>When it comes to city driving and bringing along some friends or family, the Bentayga is surely hard to beat in terms of design and performance.</p><h2><b>1. Rolls-Royce Cullinan</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/cq5dam.web_.1920-1.webp"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/cq5dam.web_.1920-2.webp?w=1024"></figure><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/cq5dam.web_.1920.webp?w=1024"></figure><p><a href="https://www.rolls-roycemotorcars.com/en_US/showroom/cullinan.html">For more photos, click here</a></p><p>Another enticing SUV that Elliott just couldn’t resist having is the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. To have the keys to this elite SUV, the two-time All-Pro player paid around $327,000.</p><p>At $327,000, the Cullinan is easily the most expensive car in his garage. The Cullinan is powered by a 6.75L twin-turbocharged V12 engine, allowing it to have 563 horsepower and 627 lb-ft torque. The luxurious SUV is also capable of going from 0 to 60 mph in just less than five seconds while going as fast as 155 mph.</p><p>Apart from engine performance, Elliott should also have no problems taking his family or friends with him as they explore the city with flair.</p><p>Nevertheless, this is all the information that we have on Ezekiel Elliott’s incredible $801K car collection.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
