After taking part in individual drills last week, Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was a full participant in team practice Monday, clearing the way to make his preseason debut Thursday.
The No. 4 overall pick practiced with the first-team unit after suffering a minor hamstring injury early in camp, and appeared to be making a connection with star receiver Dez Bryant.
With the third preseason game being hailed as a dress rehearsal by most teams - and Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones hinting at an imminent return - Elliott will likely make his preseason debut against the Seattle Seahawks later this week.
