Ezekiel Elliott Wants to Be a Cowboys Player for Life amid Contract Holdout

Ezekiel Elliott may be mired in a contract dispute with the Dallas Cowboys and currently holding out, but that doesn't mean the superstar running back wants to be anywhere else.

As he told Keith Gordon of Maxim, he's hoping to be with the organization for his entire career:

"I love playing for the Dallas Cowboys, I love the organization, my teammates. I do want to be a Cowboy for the rest of my life and hopefully that's a possibility. But even Emmitt Smith, the greatest running back ever, ended up going to play a couple of years for another organization.
