For the Dallas Cowboys, the reflection about the running back committee has gone on long enough.
As the receivers prepare for the possibility of rain in New York, Dallas Cowboys running back Dalvin Cook hands a wet football off to fellow bak Ezekiel Elliott during practice at The Star in Frisco, Texas, September 24, 2024, reflection about the running back committee has gone on long enough: It just needs to stop. And based on what we’ve seen in the first six weeks of the season, it probably has.
What’s apparent is Rico Dowdle, Ezekiel Elliott and Deuce Vaughn are a broken running back committee. On the season, the Cowboys have rushed for an NFL-worst 463 yards. This running back room is averaging 3.5 yards per carry. The Cowboys have scored just two rushing touchdowns, tied with the Browns for fewest in the league.The cost to sign Henry was too great given the future financial commitments geared toward quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, according to the team. .
When the Cowboys return from the bye week, the coaches and players need to find answers before this season gets away from them.This is my 15th year covering the Dallas Cowboys. I've covered four head coaches and started covering the beat in Bill Parcells' last season when Tony Romo took over in 2006. And now I'm in the midst of the Dak Prescott/Micah Parsons era.
