FRISCO, Texas -- As the Dallas Cowboys begin their preparations for season opener against the New York Giants with practice Monday, coach Jason Garrett would not commit to a timeframe for when Ezekiel Elliott needs to be with the team in order to play.
"Zeke is as capable as anybody I know. He's an experienced player, he's been a really good player for us, he knows our system of football," Garrett said. "I don't think they'll be a lot of learning there. He's a smart guy, an instinctive guy. But again, that's a hypothetical.
