polecatt 403 Posted October 26, 2022 Sprained knee, says he's likely sitting out week 8 vs the Bears. They have a bye after that so if he is in fact out, I don't expect it to be more than a game Report: Ezekiel Elliott likely out this week (msn.com) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 816 Posted October 26, 2022 Zeke's been a warrior not missing many games in his career. Kinda wonder if he was talked into taking a rest week by the coaches because the Bears suck and to save Zeke for second half of season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some would even argue Pollard is better than Zeke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He took a good shot right on the knee, looked awkward, could have easily been a lot worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Law 220 Posted October 27, 2022 If Zeke is out, I will likely go with Pollard over A Jones against the Bills in a heavy yardage league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdogge 17 Posted October 27, 2022 They have a bye next week.... Makes a lot of sense. He'll get a couple weeks worth of rest/treatment. Meanwhile.... Pollard gonna rip faces off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
