Giants not focused on Dallas’ Elliott
New York prepared to face Cowboys whether holdout RB signs contract or not
The New York Giants are ready to play the Cowboys whether Ezekiel Elliott plays for Dallas or not.
“We’re just focused on us, really,” linebacker Alex Ogletree said. “We have to be prepared for whoever shows up to play. If he’s there, we’ll be prepared for him. If he’s not, we also have to be prepared for the other guys. We just have to focus on what we need to do versus worrying about their situation as much.”
