Dak Prescott: ‘Tough’ to see Cowboys release RB Ezekiel Elliott after years playing together.

Respect is something that is earned in the National Football League. Each week, players often show their mutual respect for one another by exchanging jerseys after their games. The Dallas Cowboys host the New England Patriots at AT&T Stadium this week. Here is why I think this will happen afterward.

“It’s tough. A brother,” Prescott said of Elliott at a charity event Thursday. “Playing the game with a brother. To be able to start this NFL career and share so many memories and grow up as men … with this organization. Really can’t imagine taking the field without him. I don’t know if it’s completely hit me yet. Obviously, I’ve talked to him. I’m hurt. I’m sure he is. It’s more important for me to be able to support him. I know he’s got more opportunities coming his way and love that guy, proud of him.” ~Dak Prescott

When it comes to Dallas Cowboys fans and their respect for players it’s a different story on social media. It’s a “What have you done for me lately” type of situation. I have never seen 2 players hated more than both of them since 2016. Before, they were busy hating on Tony Romo’s interceptions.
