A potential return to Dallas has been discussed but the meeting one day before the start of the 2024 NFL Draft was described as 'just talking.' Nothing is imminent, and his return remains a long shot.
The Cowboys are focused on drafting a starting running back on Friday; failing that, there's a possibility for Elliott's return due to their financial constraints and need for improvement.
Elliott's uncertain future stems from his high salary as well as his decline in production, despite being a two-time NFL rushing champion. The team's finances have been impacted by his dead money against the salary cap.
The Cowboys' running back group lacks star power beyond Elliott, with players like Royce Freeman, Deuce Vaughn, Rico Dowdle, Malik Davis, and Snoop Connor. Draft or free agency upgrades are essential.
