Fantasy Alert: Ezekiel Elliott Thinks Cowboys Run Game Will Be Emphasized vs. Raiders

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is anticipating a significant workload when his team hosts the Las Vegas Raiders in a Thanksgiving clash.

According to David Moore of the Dallas Morning News, Elliott said: "I think running the football has to be important to us. I think it helps this offense. We're a better football team when we can run it well. I think it will be [a] point for us Thursday to get that run game going."

Zeke's comments came on the heels of a tough outing for himself and the Cowboys' running game in a 19-9 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
