It's a summer of new beginnings for New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott.
After being released by the Dallas Cowboys in March, Elliott signed with the Patriots last month. The 28-year-old running back joins a backfield with third-year running back Rhamondre Stevenson, who is coming off a career season with 1,040 yards rushing.
A new team means a new number for Elliott. He switched from No. 21 to No. 15, which he wore during three seasons with the Ohio State Buckeyes. He reverted back to his college number since defensive back Adrian Phillips wears No.
