Ezekiel Elliott Discipline Decision Reportedly Not Expected This Week from NFL

The NFL is reportedly not close to a decision when it comes to Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott. 

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the league is still considering possible discipline for the running back's alleged domestic violence incident from last July, but it is not expected to make an announcement this week.

Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reported earlier this month that the league's year-long investigation was "nearing completion," but it appears no decision is imminent.

A woman who says she is Elliott's ex-girlfriend alleged the NFL star assaulted her over the course of several days in July 2016. While the Columbus City Attorney's Office didn't press charges, the league has been investigating the incident for the past year. The NFL reserves the right to punish players who have not been found guilty of a crime under the personal conduct policy.

Elliott also recently met with officials to discuss the situation, per Rob Phillips of the team's official site.

"They have had their hearing and they have had all of the responses," owner Jerry Jones said Saturday. "Everything's in place to make a decision."

It appears the team and player will have to wait even longer to learn about any possible discipline stemming from this case.
