Cowboys RB Ezekiel might not play against Bears in week 8
The NFL 2022 season is going well, but the Dallas Cowboys seem to suffer from one injury after another. The team might have lost its running back, Ezekiel Elliott, due to a knee sprain. The player did not practice this week, increasing the growing suspicion of Elliott missing Week 8. The Dallas Cowboys are competing against the Chicago Bears this Sunday. While the team had a strong winning chance, the injury ruined it significantly.
Many sports enthusiasts expected Dallas to lose its position in NFL Betting. The news also changed most bettors’ picks for the game since Ezekiel was among the hot picks. The player accumulated 15 carries in the match against Detroit Lions, helping the team secure a comfortable 24 – 6 victory. However, this season, the running backpack 109 carries for over 443 yards with four exquisite touchdowns. If Ezekiel does not play, it will mark the player’s first missed official match since 2020 Week 15.
However, seeing how Dak Prescott has also recently made a comeback from an injury, Dallas will surely compete with a handicap. However, the development might allow Tony Pollard a moment to shine against the Bears. Pollard also boasts a decent scoring history against the team, making the player’s presence crucial on Sunday.
