Ezekiel Elliott has again been granted a temporarily restraining order against the NFL's decision to suspended him for six games, allowing the Dallas Cowboys running back to continue to play.

This is the second time a TRO has been filed and accepted for the second time this season.

Tuesday's TRO was requested by the NFL Players Association and was ruled upon by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The ruling made by Judge Paul Crotty "ordered that, sufficient reason having show therefor, pending the hearing and determination of this motion for a preliminary injunction, pursuant to Rule 65 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the NFL shall be temporarily restrained and enjoined from enforcing Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension pending further proceedings.
