Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott already in the Hall of Fame

Ezekiel Elliott

That didn’t take too long. It might actually be some sort of a record.

Dallas Cowboys rookies Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott are already in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Kinda. Sorta.

The two had their jerseys sent to the Hall of Fame in Canton after absolutely dismantling their opposition over the first five games of the season.

As the Hall of Fame itself noted, Prescott and Elliott are the first rookie teammates in NFL history to put up 1,000 passing yards and 500 rushing yards in their first five games.

Elliott leads the NFL in rushing at 546 yards and is being compared in some circles to what Adrian Peterson did during his rookie campaign.

Meanwhile, Prescott holds the rookie mark with 155 pass attempts to start his career without an interception. The first-year signal caller is just a half dozen shy of Tom Brady’s overall record.

Together, Prescott and Elliott  have led the Cowboys to a 4-1 record and the eighth-best scoring offense in the NFL heading into Week 6.
