Breaking: Ezekiel Elliott leaving US for undisclosed location

Suspended Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will leave the United States to train and "clear his head."

The 22-year-old Elliott won’t be out of the U.S. for the entire suspension, though, as he’s scheduled to appear in court Dec. 1 to appeal the suspension. 

He’s not eligible to return until Dallas’ game against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. 

The six-game ban was handed down by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell after a year-long investigation by the NFL into domestic violence allegations made against Elliott by his ex-girlfriend, Tiffany Thompson. 

The Ohio State product has maintained his innocence, and was never charged in the incident, which occurred in Feb. 2016.
