Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was named in a lawsuit after his three dogs allegedly attacked a pool cleaner March 11.
TMZ Sports reported Friday a woman alleged she was "ambushed" by a Rottweiler and two bulldogs while working at Elliott's home in Frisco, Texas. She immediately went to the emergency room for injuries to her arms and legs and later required surgery on her forearm.
"Ezekiel was in no way negligent in connection with the alleged incident and intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit," Frank Salzano, Elliott's attorney, told TMZ.
