Los Angeles (AFP) - Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott has denied an accusation of domestic violence by a former girlfriend in Ohio.

A woman who said she used to live with Elliott filed a report with the Columbus police department on Friday, accusing the former Ohio State University star of assaulting her.

She told police that she had pain in her right wrist and a red mark but had declined medical treatment, according to the report.

Elliott, who turned 21 on Friday, denied the accusations as well as the accuser's claim that they lived together.
