The NFLPA will ask for a full panel rehearing of Ezekiel Elliott's case with the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Elliott could also get his injunction stayed while the request is considered. It means he could potentially play as the the legal process draws itself out. There's no guarantee Elliott's appeal is granted after the same court ruled against him. As of now, Elliott is set to be suspended through Week 12.

When is this s**t gonna end!!!!!!


There's a lot of confusion about the next steps. From what I understand they first have to ask the court for a hearing, if the court agrees to hold a hearing, THEN they could have a temporary injunction in place to allow Elliot to play, while the hearing is scheduled.

The court very rarely grants these hearings. Last year out of 200 rehearing it granted 11. A rehearing requires ALL of the judges to be present; all 15 of them. I highly doubt the court will gather up all the judges to hear a CBA dispute. This is not a case that will have ramifications for the general public. Most likely outcome is that he serves the 6 games, starting in SF.

More likely right after
He's back lol awesome news for my fantasy team

Who cares about fantasy.

The judge in TX is refusing to lift the original I juction. Can he do that? It's weird that he would announce this on a Saturday. I smell home cooking. It'll be interesting to see what the 5th district court thinks of this. Hopefully they refuse to schedule a rehearing.

If things stay as the are, meaning no word from the court, then no he is not playing.

The only way he plays is if the court agrees to schedule a rehearing of the case. This is extremely unlikely to happen.

I think a more interesting question is will we be the first team that will play Dak with a 7 man front? Without zeke no need to sell out on the run.

The NFL is giving women tremendous power over players by suspending him without a court of law convicting him of DV. In fact, the court didn't press charges because the woman was caught lying about multiple things, including lying about being assulted.

Very bad move by the NFL.

She was clearly lying. I saw the evidence with my own eyes.

exactly, Lawyers can make the most evil person look innocent
Why are suspensions in a privately owned company like the NFL subject to governmental arbitration? Let the law's punishment fit the crime, and after that the NFL should be able to punish as they see fit.

Now you can go around raping and beating women and then drag it into a multi year legal battle to keep playing and earning your paychecks.
