DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - The Cowboys are doing everything they can to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Most of the team is staying at the Omni hotel in Frisco, which is conjoined to The Star. Not to mention all of the other procedures that every NFL team has in place to prevent players and members of the organization from getting sick.
Running back Ezekiel Elliott, who previously tested positive for COVID-19, told the media that he's confident his teammates will remain focused on winning the Lombardi Trophy while staying safe.
"We all are here to play football," Elliott said. "We're not going to do anything dumb to jeopardize that. It's really not about you. It's about the guy next to you. You don't want to get that guy sick. You don't want to have him going home to his family and get it. It's more of an accountability thing, just keeping each other accountable. It's not about you. It's about the guys around you in this locker room and their families."
Elliott went on to add that he believes the extension testing the NFL has in place will keep everyone safe.
"Just with testing, I've been tested every day," Elliott said. "I think obviously being safe while we're here in the facility and social distancing as much as we can. As we depart from camp, that everyone stays as disciplined. And everyone continues to protect everyone on this team and their families."
