Ezekiel Elliott can play in Sunday’s game, federal appeals court rules

The 2nd US circuit court of appeals granted the Cowboys running back an administrative stay Friday morning, putting a hold on his six-game suspension

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott can play in Sunday’s home game against Kansas City while a federal appeals court considers a challenge to his six-game suspension.

The 2nd US circuit court of appeals in New York City issued a one-page order Friday temporarily blocking a lower-court ruling that cleared the way this week for Elliott to begin serving the disciplinary penalty.
