Cowboys' Jerry Jones seems worry-free over Ezekiel Elliott holdout

OXNARD, Calif. (AP) — Ezekiel Elliott's contract holdout doesn't have Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones worried about a resolution or a timeline.

At least that's the message Jones is offering about trying to get a deal done with his missing two-time NFL rushing champion.

"When have I ever not done one?" Jones said after practice at training camp Thursday night. "So I don't worry about that. You just keep plugging."

Elliott has missed five camp practices while seeking a new contract despite having two years remaining on his current one.

The fourth overall choice in the 2016 draft, Elliott is due to make $3.
