NFL Training Camp Notebook: Ezekiel Elliott Continuing Cowboys Holdout in Cabo

Keep track of all the latest NFL news as training camp opens this week.

NFL training camp is underway and there is still no sign of Ezekiel Elliott.

Dallas' running back is holding out of the Cowboys' camp in Oxnard, Calif., and the two-time rushing champion is reportedly in Cabo San Lucas as he waits for a new deal. There is no timetable for Elliott's appearance in camp.

Cowboys' drama isn't the only headline to arise out of the first week of training camp. Ryan Fitzpatrick seized a lead over Josh Rosen for the Dolphins starting QB role, and A.J. Green's ankle injury is likely to keep him out for multiple regular-season games. The preseason is fast approaching, and the rumor mill remains hot in the final day of July.
