Ezekiel Elliott’s father, Stacy, has gone viral for his attempts to defend his son on social media. He recently claimed that he would offer $10,000 to anyone who can prove his son “fell off.”
Of course, there’s no denying that Elliott has seen a lack of production in recent years since his first four seasons in the NFL, where he accumulated 5,405 rushing yards and 48 total touchdowns.
One social media took this challenge seriously and put together a six-and-a-half-minute video explaining why Elliott is “washed.”
In the video, the user breaks out many films that help support his claim. The first clip is extremely telling, as it shows Elliott’s inability to outrun defensive backs and even some defensive linemen.
He also uses a lot of film from his earlier years to show that Ezekiel does not have the speed and burst he once had.
The user also compares him to running back Derrick Henry, who is older than Elliott and who many Cowboys wanted the front office to sign in free agency.
He shows a shocking statistic: Henry has had 12 runs of 20+ miles per hour in the last three years, while Elliott has had zero.
In one of his final statements, he says, “The problem with Zeke isn’t that he’s an awful running back. He’s not. I promise. He’s not an awful running back. I’m not saying that, but he’s not a good one. He’s not creating outside of what’s given to him.”
Many Agreed With This Social Media Users Take About Ezekiel Elliott
In the comments, there were much more supporters of his opinions than people who disagreed
“I hope you get your 10k, man, but we know he was just talking,” said one commenter.
“The bengals run as a comparison, the 20+ mph stats. Took the words right out of my mouth and then some you sir, know ball,” said another.
“earned a follow with that one. love it,” continued a third.
