Ezekiel Elliott is a 21-year-old rookie running back for the Dallas Cowboys, the world's most valuable sports franchise. And yet, he feels comfortable in his high-profile role. So much so, he did a TV interview in his underwear Sunday.

Elliott had reason to feel loose. He rushed for a career-high (in his six-game career) 157 yards for his fourth consecutive 100-yard outing. The former Ohio State star leads the NFL with 703 rushing yards. The Bills' LeSean McCoy pulls into second at 587 rushing yards.
It's well-documented that broadcast journalists sit at anchor desks without pants all the time, but the roles are reversed here. Elliott knew he was only speaking to ESPN's Ed Werder from the waist up, but teammate Kavon Frazier snuck the picture.

Elliott previously made a fashion statement at the NFL Draft with a crop top. It is good to see him continuing to broaden his style at the NFL level.
