Watch Cowboys Ezekiel Elliott make heart-warming gesture for young fan

Ezekiel Elliott, like his Dallas Cowboys’ teammates, wasn’t happy when Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts was over.

The Cowboys, with a chance to clinch the NFC East title, laid an egg as the Colts rolled 23-0.

But after the game, Elliott didn’t let the bad mood ruin it for a young fan in the the stands. On his way up off the field, before he headed up the tunnel to the locker room, Elliott gave his cleats to a young fan with a sign celebrating his first time to see Elliott play in person.

Elliott, who rushed for 87 yards on 18 carries in the loss, spotted the young fan and a sign detailing that it was his first Cowboys’ game. It also had “Feed Zeke” and No. 21 on display.

Later, the boy’s brother tweeted a shot of the signed cleats from Elliott.
