If every player under contract to the two teams were on hand Michael Gallup Jersey White , Sunday’s game between the Cowboys and Giants would showcase the NFL’s two leading rushers from 2019.With every passing day, it becomes more likely that Giants running back Saquon Barkley will be the only one there. Ezekiel Elliott‘s holdout continues and there may not be a resolution in time for Elliott to open the season against Dallas’ NFC East rivals.Giants head coach Pat Shurmur is keeping an eye on the situation and said the Giants are “getting ready for [Elliott] to be there,” but downplayed how much the game plan would change if he isn’t in the lineup. He also said rookie Tony Pollard has made a strong impression on the team at various points in the calendar.“He’s had an impact as a rookie,” Shurmur said at Monday’s press conference. “We actually liked him during the draft. We had him on our board in a prominent position. But he’s done a good job. He’s fast. He has really good instincts. He has good collision balance. He can catch the ball. He’s got what you’re looking for in a runner. It appears from what I’ve seen on tape and from what they’re saying that they’re really fond of what he’s done so far.”Pollard has looked good this summer and Dak Prescott Jersey , as Shurmur noted, the Cowboys have done all they can to publicly state their confidence in his ability. One would still imagine that the Giants would be OK without having to tangle with Elliott this weekend. Jerry Jones got a deal done with Emmitt Smith in 1993 after the running back held out for the first two games. He got a deal done with Dez Bryant at the 11th hour in 2015 after the Cowboys franchised the receiver. So the Cowboys owner is not concerned about getting deals done with Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott and Amari Cooper.That’s the Cliff’s Notes version — Jerry’s Notes version? — of what Jones said Tuesday when asked about juggling three contract negotiations.“Picture if you were the driver of a car, and you had a wreck and your hand was almost severed off. but you didn’t understand your anatomy https://www.thecowboyslockerroom.com/authentic-ezekiel-elliott-jersey ,” Jones said, via Jon Machota of TheAthletic.com. “You look down. You’re spurting blood. You open the door and run to the woods and either die of bleeding to death or shock. The educated man looks down, knows his anatomy, squeezes and knows his best chance is to wait for help. That’s because he’s been there a lot and done that. And so I’m squeezing and waiting for help. That’s my lesson for today.”The Cowboys don’t appear close on any of the negotiations Amari Cooper Cowboys Jersey , and Jones said he wouldn’t have a problem with talks going into the season. He added that the agents for the three star players have not ruled out continuing talks into the season either.Cooper and Prescott are entering the final year of their contracts, while the Cowboys have picked up the fifth-year option on Elliott’s contract for 2020. But Elliott has pressed the team into dealing with him now by holding out. Executive vice president Stephen Jones has said the Cowboys are not seeking to become market-setters, and Jerry Jones seemed to parrot that Tuesday.“I’ve got to realize that I could let a DeMarcus Ware out of here because I don’t have enough money, because I paid it to too many others https://www.thecowboyslockerroom.com/authentic-leighton-vander-esch-jersey ,” Jerry Jones said. “That happened to me. I don’t want that to happen again. And we’ve got some top talent here.”
