Will Ezekiel Elliott surpass DeMarco Murray on the Cowboys all-time rushing list in 2018?

DeMarco Murray retired on Friday, and when he did, he did so as number six on the Dallas Cowboys all-time rushing list.

There are 4,526 yards that DeMarco earned (an astonishing 1,845 of them all in 2014) during his days in Dallas, but the meat the left on the proverbial bone was quickly devoured by Ezekiel Elliott in 2016. Two years in, only 25 games mind you, Zeke is sitting on 2,614 yards with the Cowboys.

Some quick math will tell you that Zeke trails DeMarco by 1,912 yards. It sounds ridiculous, but he could surpass him this season if everything breaks right.
