Ezekiel Elliott's workload could increase with Lance Dunbar's exit

FRISCO, Texas – The Dallas Cowboys are in the market for a third-down back after Lance Dunbar agreed to a deal with the Los Angeles Rams, but they might not have to look very far.

#Rams and RB Lance Dunbar agreed to a 1-year deal worth up to $3m, source told ESPN.

The Cowboys viewed Ezekiel Elliott as an every-down back, which is why they were more than comfortable in selecting him with the fourth overall pick last year, even if some do not believe a running back should go that high.
