FRISCO, Texas _ Ezekiel Elliott will carry a significant load against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Scott Linehan
Sunday's game will mark the star running back's first game since missing the previous six under NFL suspension.
Elliott returned in better shape than he left, as he is leaner after training in Cabo, San Lucas, for much of his time away.
"I think we're going to have significant touches," Linehan said. "He looks like he's in great shape. Practicing great. He just looks great. So he's one of those guys that trains and prepares for the games. I think he's ready to roll."
Elliott had no few fewer than 27 carries in the four games before he began the suspension.
The Cowboys are facing an injury-riddled Seahawks defense that gave up 152 yards rushing and four total touchdowns to Rams running back Todd Gurley last Sunday.
