What does Ezekiel Elliott's Vegas incident say about his judgment, and how will Roger Goodell respond?

At least two errors in judgment were made by Ezekiel Elliott to open this week.

One: exhibiting behavior that led to him being briefly retained and handcuffed by Las Vegas police four hours before his football camp got underway at 9 a.m. in Frisco.

Two: going on camera with KTVT (Channel 11) a few hours later to tell viewers he had grown up, learned from his mistakes and "it made me a better person."

Elliott's apparent maturation has been a prevalent narrative this offseason. It's one Cowboys fans want to buy. It's one the running back wants to sell with a contract extension on the horizon.
