Look: Ezekiel Elliott lands at airport in Dallas as contract talk heats up
The internet is doing what it does best: tracking the flights of important sports figures. And on Tuesday, that involved following Ezekiel Elliott.
Zeke was reportedly flying back to Dallas from Mexico, where he had been training during his holdout. Of course, in this day and age, reports aren’t just magical words; they can be confirmed with actual photos shared over social media.
One photo that was shared on Twitter showed Elliott on a plane:

Unconfirmed reports have suggested the Cowboys and the two-time rushing leader are close to reaching agreement on a six-year, $90 million deal. The Cowboys are a legit contender this season and don’t want to blow that by failing to sign Elliott.
