2nd Circuit Denies Injunction For Elliott, Paving Way For Suspension To Start - Rob Phillips, Dallas Cowboys
The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has denied an emergency injunction for Ezekiel Elliott, paving the way for the running back’s six-game NFL suspension to take effect.
“Pending further appeals, a full six-game suspension would mean the All-Pro running back isn’t eligible to return to the field until Dec. 24 against Seattle. According to reports, the Second Circuit did grant an expedited appeal of the overall case that is set to be heard Dec. 1 -- four games into the six-game suspension.
