Garrett disappointed in Elliott's reaction to interception

Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett revealed his frustration with Ezekiel Elliott after the running back seemingly gave up on a play during Sunday's 42-17 loss to the Denver Broncos.

Quarterback Dak Prescott was picked off in the third quarter by Broncos star cornerback Chris Harris, who was in Elliott's general vicinity as he darted upfield for a 23-yard return. Elliott didn't track back, however, and appeared to storm off in the opposite direction.

Garrett was decidedly unimpressed but said he's yet to speak to Elliott.

"That's not the way we play," Garrett said via ESPN's Todd Archer.

Elliott submitted the worst performance of his young professional career, rushing for 8 yards on nine carries, adding four receptions for 14 yards.

Hall of Fame running back and NFL Network analyst LaDainian Tomlinson blasted Elliott postgame, believing that he quit on his team.

"I didn’t like the way he quit today," Tomlinson said on NFL Network. "I didn’t like that. He absolutely quit on this team today. There are going to be times where you aren’t going to have room to run."

"First, his attitude on the sideline," Tomlinson added. "He didn’t have any communication with his teammates. Also, he didn’t want to talk to his teammates. Sometimes when things are going wrong, as the leader of that team and as a captain, you have to step up and rally the troops."
