Dallas Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott hopes to rebound with focus on nutrition, quickness

OXNARD, California -- Ezekiel Elliott does not need to look far for motivation. He is coming off the worst statistical year of his career with the Dallas Cowboys, rushing for just 979 yards in 15 games.

"Just having the year I had last year, you don't need more motivation than that," Elliott said after the Cowboys' first training camp practice. "I just know the type of player I am. I don't think I showed that last year. I got a lot to prove. I just made sure I didn't leave any doubt out there that I didn't do as much as I needed to do.
