Dallas Cowboys Ezekiel Elliott says he’s feeling normal a week after COVID-19 diagnosis
Ezekiel Elliott had minor symptoms and is feeling “good” again a week after being diagnosed with COVID-19.
Elliott had a Twitch chat with Scooter Magruder on Wednesday, saying: “I would say I had one or two days where I felt symptoms, and even then it wasn’t too bad. I had a cough and a little bit of shortness of breath. But now I would say I feel good, I feel normal.
“I still can’t work out. I’ve got to wait until … I could’ve went and gotten re-tested this week. I just decided it won’t hurt just to wait another week and just give myself more time to rest up. But I feel good.”
Elliott was diagnosed with coronavirus last week, his agent confirmed. But the big question is whether football will be played this fall amid the pandemic.
“I do hope we have a season, but it has to be right,” he said.
Elliott is entering his fifth season with the Cowboys. He rushed for 1,357 yards and 12 touchdowns last season, earning Pro Bowl honors for the third time in his career.
