Police in Aventura, Florida, were called to the apartment of Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott to investigate an altercation with a woman in February, according to a report in USA Today Sports.The alleged incident involved the same woman who made a domestic abuse claim against Elliott in July, according to the newspaper, which obtained a copy of the incident report.The accuser alleged that Elliott, who was in Florida training for the draft, had pushed her against a wall resulting in left shoulder pain, according to the report, which also said there were no physical signs of injury and no independent witnesses.There were no arrests, and there is no record the accuser pursued charges, Terry Chavez, a spokesperson for the Miami-Dade State Attorneys office, told USA Today.Earlier this week, Elliott said he was interviewed by the NFL about six weeks ago about the abuse claim made against him in July. He characterized there being an ongoing investigation but said he didnt really know what was going on.Prosecutors in Ohio declined to press charges over the summer in a domestic violence case involving the fourth overall draft pick. In September, when Ohio officials decided not to file criminal charges, the Columbus city attorneys office cited conflicting and inconsistent information in evidence.A police report said Elliott, who played at Ohio State, denied allegations that he assaulted the woman in July, causing bruises and abrasions. Three witnesses told police they didnt see Elliott assault the 20-year-old woman. Elliott said the woman got the bruises and abrasions in a bar fight.After the win Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones sounded confident Elliott would not be penalized by the league. However, that was before this report.People that have a lot more information than I have have given him a total clean bill of health, Jones said. I do know that all the real information that anybody has is that he doesnt have an issue.Jones acknowledged having a conversation with Lisa Friel, who serves as special counsel to the NFL involving personal conduct issues, at the recent owners meetings in Houston. He called it a good discussion, and said it might have gotten loud because, I was having to talk over the music.Jones position is that time has elapsed since the incident and Elliott will not face any legal repercussions in Ohio. The NFL does not require the same burden of proof in its personal conduct policy. A player does not have to be charged in the legal system to have run afoul of the policy.I dont know that the NFL has a closure, has a situation where theyve cut it close, which could be a frailty of the system, Jones said after the Eagles game. As you know in law, one of the things in the Constitution is that not only are you innocent before proven guilty, you get quick addressing and then you dont get it drawn out. It has certain time frames and has a lot of economic limitations. So we have to, in my mind, just make sure that we inject that in the type of looking for information that we do in the NFL. But law has many, if you will a couple 100 years at least, working on through how you basically create some time frames, create how its initiated, create what the circumstances are about. And several which pertain to the NFL and companies, they dont necessarily have to go by that. We have a different deal though. Were so public and our issues are so public that we dont afford some of the things for some of the players, other people involved in the NFL, that the law does.ESPN Cowboys reporter Todd Archer contributed to this report.Kenny Stabler Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

Hes got eyes on a better finish this season.Yun prevailed in the opening World Cup race of the season on Saturday, finishing two runs at the Whistler Sliding Center in 1 minute, 45.86 seconds. Russias Alexander Tretiakov was second in 1:45.98, and Matt Antoine of the U.S. used the strength of a flawless second heat to grab the bronze in 1:46.22.Yun crossed the finish line, took off his helmet and let out a celebratory yell. He held on for the win, even though Antoine had the fastest time in the second heat.I love this track, Antoine said. Its fast, difficult, and every run here is a challenge. You have to work for every inch, and this is what I love about this sport.The surprise might not have been who won, but rather who didnt even medal. Latvias Martins Dukurs, the seven-time World Cup champion, was fourth -- snapping a 21-raace streak in which he finished either first or second in a World Cup race.ddddddddddddDukurs last missed a podium in a World Cup on Dec. 13, 2013, when he finished eighth at Lake Placid. Thats where the circuit is heading next, for racing in two weeks.Antoine had a streak snapped as well -- he hadnt medaled in any of his last 12 World Cup starts, going back to January 2015. He changed training regimens this winter in an effort to improve his time and form at the start, and saw immediate dividends Saturday.In this sport you cant give up time at the start if you want to be competitive at the finish, Antoine said. It was frustrating going into the races last season knowing I had a disadvantage. Getting back into a program with Jon Carlock helped me get back on track, and now I walk to the line with confidence again.Nathan Crumpton was 14th for the U.S., and teammate Kyle Tress took 20th.
