He supposedly is a party animal, but this is bordering on Pacman Jones level stupid.Maybe I'm naive or something but I never would've suspected Elliott being such a knucklehead.
Irrelevant. His supposed chivalry does not matter.Blacksportsonline.com (which is racist btw) indicates Zeke only knocked the guy out because he was verbally harassing the girl Zeke was with.
Sounds like a non-story to me. But, he has got to stop putting himself in those situations.Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott, who remains under investigation by the NFL, found himself back in the news on Monday morning as he was reportedly involved in a late-night bar incident, according to Mike Fisher of 105.3 the Fan, a CBS Sports Radio Dallas affiliate.
Adam Schefter of ESPN confirmed the report as well, noting that the Dallas Police said no arrests were made on Sunday evening in connection with the incident. The incident reportedly occurred at Clutch Bar late on Sunday night. We will have more details as they emerge.
Elliott remains under investigation for an alleged domestic violence incident back in 2016. The Cowboys running back led the league in carries and in rushing yards in 2016, but has been in the news for negative reasons this offseason before this latest reported incident.
Back in March, Elliott was in a parade and pulled down a woman's shirt while on the top of a float. That incident drew widespread criticism, including from Cowboys owner and GM Jerry Jones, who called Elliott's behavior "not good."
Dallas Police released a statement indicating a man was assaulted during the incident in question, but was not aware exactly who assaulted him. Never in the statement does Elliott's name appear.

Not when you're a professional football player you can't. You have to just walk off and get out of the situation. I'm not entirely convinced yet it was even him that punched the dude. But, you just can't keep putting yourself in those situations. It's stupid.Good lord you can't even punch out some drunken loser fucking with your woman anymore.
Lance Dunbar, no doubt about it. Little Napoleon complex having SOB!6:32 AM PT -- The Dallas PD now says it DOES have a record of an incident at Clutch Bar and it appears to be connected the Ezekiel Elliott investigation.
We spoke with SGT. Williams who tells us ... cops were called to Clutch around 9:30 PM for a "disturbance."
Cops at the bar spoke to a man who said his nose was just broken -- but the man appeared to be extremely intoxicated and couldn't remember who hit him.
The man's friend told police, "It was that Dallas Cowboys running back."
We're told the victim was transported to a nearby hospital for his injuries.
Cops said they did NOT speak with Elliott at the scene. He was not at the club by the time they tried to look for him.
Cops said, based on the lack of information and the fact the accuser appeared to be intoxicated, no arrests were made.
A rep for Elliott would only say his client was not arrested and no formal criminal complaint has been filed against the RB.
Hard to say. But I would probably go with ignorance. Prob thinks these things aren't as big of deals as everyone makes it out to be.My thoughts are pretty much in line with Simp's.
When I saw this story one of my first thoughts was that I now hope the knucklehead does get suspended. Maybe missing a couple of games will drive home the message that he obviously keeps missing.
I don't know if it's arrogance, stupidity, or both.
Because they aren't public figures.To be honest, I don't see what the big deal is. When I was a six year old hustling pool players at my one armed mothers bar, this type of thing would happen all the time. Back then though, you'd just tell them afterwards that you still respected them amigo and they'd buy you a steak.
I agree. You would think he would have a clue after playing for a high profile school like tOSU but some of these young guys don't realize that they're under a microscope and playing for Dallas takes it up another notch.Not when you're a professional football player you can't. You have to just walk off and get out of the situation. I'm not entirely convinced yet it was even him that punched the dude. But, you just can't keep putting yourself in those situations. It's stupid.
Was it the bouncer who got punched? The way I've read everything is that the guy who got punched was extremely intoxicated. I sure hope that wasn't the bouncer.That bouncer is an asshole for putting Zeke in a position to have to hit him.
No, not sure where the hell I came up with that.Was it the bouncer who got punched? The way I've read everything is that the guy who got punched was extremely intoxicated. I sure hope that wasn't the bouncer.
