Faulk training Zeke to get RB into game shape

Ezekiel Elliott is still holding out, but that hasn't stopped him from working out.

The Dallas Cowboys running back is working with Hall of Fame running back Marshall Faulk in Cabo San Lucas so he can be ready to play when the contract issue is resolved.

"His fitness is great but playing in games is different,'' Faulk told ESPN in a text message. "My job is to close that gap with putting him in active game situations. The only thing we can't simulate is the contact."

Elliott and Faulk are both represented by agent Rocky Arceneaux.
