Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott will make his preseason debut on Thursday against the Seattle Seahawks, head coach Jason Garrett confirmed to reporters Tuesday.

Elliott returned to practice last week, taking part in individual drills before joining the first-team offense in practice on Sunday. He was previously held out of practice for over two weeks after suffering a minor hamstring injury in early August.

The 2016 fourth-overall pick drew rave reviews from teammates and coaches early in offseason workouts, and is expected to be the team's lead back this season.
