The Facts: More than a week removed from reports of Elliott testing positive for COVID-19, the two-time NFL rushing champion said he is "feeling good."
Diehards Line:
Elliott was one of multiple Cowboys and Houston Texans players who tested positive for the novel coronavirus on June 15. Elliott said he had a cough and shortness of breath, but altogether he has felt normal. "I would say I had one or two days where I felt symptoms, and even then it wasn't too bad. I had a cough and a little bit of shortness of breath. But now I would say I feel good, I feel normal," Elliott said in a Twitch chat with Scooter Magruder, via the team website. "I still can't work out. I've got to wait until. ... I could've went and gotten re-tested this week. I just decided it won't hurt just to wait another week and just give myself more time to rest up. But I feel good." Elliott, who has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in three of his four seasons, has 5,405 yards rushing and 40 rushing touchdowns in just four seasons with the Cowboys.
