FRISCO, Texas -- Before Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, nobody knew who would lead the Dallas Cowboys’ pregame huddle.
In the past, it was Jason Witten’s job to stoke the Cowboys’ fire, but he retired to ESPN’s Monday Night Football booth. The first three games of the season, it was Sean Lee’s job, but the veteran linebacker was out Sunday with a hamstring injury.
“I’ll do it,” running back Ezekiel Elliott said, to the surprise of some inside the locker room.
So there he was in the middle of all of the Cowboys, screaming and yelling.
