Jerry Jones says Elliott’s suspension has made Prescott a better player | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones still laments the six-game suspension for star running back Ezekiel Elliott. It has not been good for a Cowboys team that is 2-3 in Elliott’s absence with one game left to go before his return.

But he readily acknowledges a positive that has come from Elliott's hiatus in the form of quarterback Dak Prescott.

Jones says on his radio show on 105.3 the Fan that Elliott's suspension has made Prescott a better player, which bodes well for the Cowboys now and in the future.

“It hurt us to miss Zeke, but as far as Dak is concerned, we've got a better player for having gone through this,” Jones said.
