NEW YORK (AP) Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott’s half-season run from his six-game suspension ended Thursday when a federal appeals court refused to let him play while it considered his appeal.
Elliott sat directly in front of a three-judge panel that considered his request to be allowed to play Authentic Ito Smith Jersey , but the court issued an order in less than an hour disqualifying him from Sunday’s game at Atlanta.

Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs told Paul Clement, the NFL’s lawyer, that he found it odd that the issue was ”such a frantic emergency that it can’t wait another couple months.”

BOSTON (AP) – Former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez suffered substantial damage to parts of the brain that affect memory, judgment and behavior from the most severe case of a degenerative disease linked to head blows ever found in someone so young, a researcher said Thursday.
Dr. Ann McKee, director of Boston University’s CTE Center, stressed that she could not ”connect the dots” between the brain disease chronic traumatic encephalopathy and the behavior of the 27-year-old who hanged himself in April while serving life in prison for murder.
But McKee said CTE had significantly impacted key parts of Hernandez’s brain Broncos Isaac Yiadom Jersey , including the hippocampus – which is associated with memory – and the frontal lobe, which is involved in impulse control, judgment and behavior.
Hernandez hanged himself in prison days after he was acquitted in the 2012 drive-by shootings of two men in Boston and just hours before his former teammates visited the White House to celebrate their latest Super Bowl victory.
Prosecutors contended he gunned the two men down after one accidentally spilled a drink on him in a nightclub – and then got a tattoo of a handgun and the words ”God Forgives” to commemorate the crime.
