Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Splitting first-team reps for now

Elliott split first-team reps with Darren McFadden during this week's OTAs, The Ft. Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Analysis:

McFadden worked with the ones during the first week of OTAs, but Elliott got his first opportunity with the starters last week when McFadden was away for personal reasons. The Cowboys are making a show of having Elliott earn his spot, but by Week 1, the fourth overall pick should be the team's primary weapon in the backfield.
