Ezekiel Elliott has been the most consistent running back in the last four years, which is why he’s now handsomely paid. But an anonymous NFL coach recently ranked Zeke outside of the top ten running backs in the league, prompting a response from the star rusher.
The coach told ESPN’s Marcus Mosher that Elliott is a shell of his former self and “doesn’t look as strong anymore”, pointing to his lack of chunk plays.
Elliott scolded the notion Thursday morning on Twitter, writing, “Whoever that is, is faded lol” while retweeting the article.
