Ezekiel Elliott and Michael Thomas have been recognized once again as two of the NFL's elite players.
The two former Ohio State players were both named to the Pro Football Writers of America's All-NFL team on Tuesday in recognition of their performances during the 2018 season.
Elliott was the NFL's leading rusher this past season, running for 1,434 yards on 304 carries, while also catching 77 passes for 567 yards and scoring nine total touchdowns (six rushing, three receiving). His Dallas Cowboys were eliminated in the divisional round of the playoffs this past weekend in a loss to the Los Angeles Rams.
Thomas led the NFL with 125 receptions during the regular season, good for 1,405 yards and nine touchdowns, on 147 targets for a top-notch catch rate of 85 percent. He caught 12 passes for 171 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' win over the Philadelphia Eagles this past weekend to lead them to a berth in the NFC Championship Game.
Thomas was also recognized as a first-team AP All-Pro this season, while Elliott earned second-team honors from the AP.

His durability has been pretty amazing considering the amount of carries he gets. Don't recall any injuries in college or pros.

He had a fucked up wrist for most of 2014. You just didn't know it because he was and is a grown ass man.

Ezekiel Elliott Alleged Altercation w/ Celeb DJ ... Dak Played Peacemaker
DJ FRANZEN GOES OFF!
Ezekiel Elliott was involved in an altercation with a HUGE celebrity DJ in Vegas early Monday morning -- with the DJ going off about the incident on video after the fact ... and it's intense.
But, sources connected to Zeke tell us ... the Cowboys star is adamant he wasn't the one in the wrong.
Here's what we know for sure ... Zeke and Dak Prescott were partying at Drai's After Hours at The Cromwell Hotel and Casino where DJ Franzen was hanging out.
DJ Franzen is a huge force in hip-hop -- he's tight with guys like Jay-Z, T.I. and Big Sean ... and Drake even gave him TWO shout-outs in TWO different songs ("The Motto" and "Elevate").
Sources connected to Franzen tell us ... he walked over to say hi and that's when Elliott and some of his crew got aggressive and things started to pop off.
One Franzen source tells us ... Dak walked over to the DJ and attempted to smooth things over -- but it was already too late ... Franzen felt disrespected and decided to go off on social media.
"Can you believe Ezekiel Elliott tried to pick a fight with me?!" Franzen said in an IG video first spotted by SportsGossip.com ... "Man, F*CK THE COWBOYS!!!"
"Get the f*ck up out of Vegas man," he added ... "You are never allowed in my section again, you little bitch."
He finished with this message -- "If y'all know Ezekiel Elliott, you tell em DJ Franzen said 'F*ck you ... you little bitch ass motherf*cker.'"
Our Zeke sources tell a different story ... claiming Franzen came over in an aggressive manner and was talking trash about the Cowboys.
One source put it this way, "He was trying to provoke Zeke."
Whoever was at fault, one thing's for sure -- don't expect these guys to be hanging out in Vegas together any time soon.

Who the fuck is DJ Franzen? And yeah, I read the article. Who the fuck is DJ Franzen?
Dude can’t even say the word Ezekiel. I guess he thinks he’s a hard gangster rapper instead of a DJ talking shit on social media after he done left the spot.
Oh, but he’s cool with other rappers that also aren’t real gangsters. So he has cred...
