Trent Williams isn’t the only disgruntled star in the NFL.

Running back Ezekiel Elliott has informed the Dallas Cowboys he’ll miss the entire season if he does not receive a new contract, according to ESPN. Elliott has two years left on his rookie contract and carries a cap hit of $7.9 million in 2019. 

Elliott has not reported to the Cowboys’ training camp as he holds out for a new deal. The 22-year-old informed the team in January of his demand, per ESPN. 

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has said a new deal for Elliott “will happen.” Dallas also would like to extend quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver Amari Cooper.
