It's been 10 months since Ezekiel Elliott was accused of domestic violence and the NFL started its investigation into the matter, and the updates on the case have become less frequent as of late.

When announcing the league was done looking into a Darrelle Revis incident from February, an NFL spokesman said Elliott's case "remains under review," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

A woman believed to be Elliott's ex-girlfriend has accused him of two domestic violence incidents: one in February 2016, in which the accuser claims she was left with an injured arm after he shoved her against a wall during an argument, and one in July of the same year in which the woman posted pictures of bruises to her Instagram and tagged Elliott.

The 21-year-old wasn't arrested or charged for either incident. He said in January he wants "closure" and accused the NFL of dragging out the investigation.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said in March "there is just nothing" to the allegations leveled at the young running back.
