Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott decided to check out the cannabis on display in Seattle after the team’s most recent exhibition game, which probably wasn’t a good idea.
Elliott visited “Herban Legends,” located in downtown Seattle. However, he was “just browsing” and did not make a purchase, according to TMZ Sports.
Understandably, Jerry Jones was not happy about it (via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram)
“Well, I think that, in and of itself, the reason we are talking about it is in a way part of the learning process,” he said. “But it’s not good. It’s just not good. It’s just not good.”
Jones continued:
“Again that’s a part of just really getting the big picture here,” he said. “No matter if you played at whatever level there is a picture here of interest. So again, I’m aware of it. I heard the report and I would know how he is. And he needs to look at that and the other thing is it’s just not good.”
The NFL wasn’t thrilled about it, either.

You’re a high draft pick that was selected by America’s Team. This wasn’t a good look. Be a bit smarter.
