FOXBORO, Mass. (WKBN) — NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport is reporting that the New England Patriots have agreed to a one-year deal with free-agent running back Ezekiel Elliott.
It is reportedly a one-year deal worth $6 million for the former Ohio State Buckeye standout. The veteran running back made a free-agent visit to New England last month.
Elliott was released by the Cowboys back in March with four years and $52.9 million remaining on his contract.
Last season, Elliott finished the season with a career-low 876 rushing yards with 12 touchdowns.
The three-time Pro Bowler was originally selected with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft.
The 28-year-old finished his stint with the Cowboys with 1,881 carries for 8,262 yards and 68 rushing touchdowns.
