Dallas Cowboys star running back Ezekiel Elliott got hurt in the fourth quarter of last Sunday’s game against the New York Giants.
Elliott said that falling on the pylon is what messed up his back as he complained it “kinda stabbed me” and caused him to lose his wind. “I fell on the pylon. That thing is kinda hard. Maybe we should find a new spot for it… I think it is foamy, but it’s hard. The base of it is hard too. It’s definitely not soft. It definitely hurt. It kinda stabbed me. I lost my wind,” Elliott said.
Elliott suffered his injury while scoring a touchdown in the 4th quarter.
Fast forward to before Sunday’s game against the Patriots and Zeke is still upset about it. During pregame, the Cowboys running back saw a pylon and kicked it so hard that it detached from the ground.
“Ezekiel Elliott – injured his back and ribs on a pylon last week – began his warmup by kicking this one so hard it became detached from the ground cable.”

“The stadium person responsible for the camera pylon in Foxboro just asked me if Ezekiel Elliott did that damage. Zeke laughed and said it wouldn’t be the last time today he hit the pylon.”
Elliott finished last week’s game with 21 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown, plus another four receptions for 28 yards through the air.
