Patriots are expected to sign Ezekiel Elliott to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million
The Patriots are adding some big time helping the backfield. The Patriots are expected to sign Ezekiel Elliott the former star running back of the Dallas Cowboys.
Zeke visited with the Patriots in late July and is now set to join the team. The former Cowboy rushed for 876 yards and 12 touchdowns last season while averaging a career-worst 3.8 yards per carry. He will no longer be a workhorse, but could be great for goal line situations and short down yardage.

Some backfield help for NE and a new home for Zeke… who plans to rock his No. 15 from college. pic.twitter.com/LrdbpHp17h
