The Dallas Cowboys are experiencing a major shift at their running back position. They lost their RB1 in free agency when Tony Pollard signed with the Tennessee Titans. They chose to pass on the marquee free agents at the position, instead they brought back internal free agent Rico Dowdle.
The Cowboys current depth chart in the backfield includes Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn, Malik Davis, and Hunter Luepke at fullback. However, there are currently rumors suggesting that Dallas could be eyeing a potential reunion with veteran RB Ezekiel Elliott. Elliott already accounts for $6.04M in dead money for the team in 2024, and if the Cowboys sign him they would essentially be paying him twice to play next season.
