Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is scheduled to attend a hearing regarding his suspension Thursday in front of a three-judge panel from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, according to ESPN's Todd Archer.
Elliott is seeking a motion for an injunction which would block his suspension. The All-Pro was granted an administrative stay Friday, which allowed him to play in Sunday's win against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The NFL issued a six-game ban to Elliott on Aug. 11, but the Cowboys star has avoided serving it by gaining numerous stays over the past three months.
Elliott will miss Thursday's practice in order to attend the hearing. The Cowboys hope Elliott's presence will increase his chances of receiving an injunction that would allow him to play for the remainder of the season, Archer reports.
Elliott is in the midst of another standout campaign. He ranks second in rushing yards with 783.
