Ezekiel Elliott is joining the New England Patriots on a one-year deal reportedly worth up to $6 million. He will wear No. 15, the same number he wore at Ohio State.
The No. 4 overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft, Elliott joins the Patriots after seven years in Dallas, where he rushed for 8,262 yards and 68 touchdowns and added 305 catches for 2,336 yards and 12 touchdowns. Elliott made the Pro Bowl in three of his first four NFL seasons, leading the league in rushing twice, but was released by the Cowboys in March after rushing for only 876 yards on 3.8 yards per carry – both career-lows – in 2022.
Elliott is expected to be the No. 2 running back in New England behind Rhamondre Stevenson, who ran for 1,040 yards and five touchdowns on five yards per carry in 2022. Elliott wasn’t the only Buckeye to agree to a deal with the Patriots on Monday, as former Ohio State linebacker Raekwon McMillan also signed a one-year contract extension with the team. While McMillan is out for the 2023 season with an Achilles tear, the extension keeps him under contract with the team for the 2024 season.McMillan is out for the season due to injury, but this keeps him in the fold for 2024. This marks the second time they have extended McMillan for a year after he landed on IR.
