Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott’s availability for Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons might come down to the wire again this week.

But this time, there might be a final decision for the rest of the season.

The Second Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, who granted Elliott an administrative stay of his six-game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy last Friday, has scheduled a hearing at 1 p.m. Thursday on his appeal of Southern District Judge Katherine Failla’s denial of his request for a preliminary injunction.

A three-judge panel will hear the case and could rule from the bench, return a decision by Friday or it might take a few days.
