"Wow, this is amazing to me—no disrespect to Malik Davis. Our starting running back is gone, and his backup has a broken leg? the NFL stands for not for long," Smith wrote. "Everyone else, go get your money because they have no love for you. It don’t make sense and this is one of those things that make you (shake) your head.

Everybody else go get your money because they have no love for you."

In 2022, Elliott rushed for 876 yards and 12 touchdowns in 15 games for Dallas.
