Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott accidentally told Twitch viewers he was 'low-key faded.'
Correction: Elliott responded to our original story and said "faded" referred to a few drinks he had while streaming. A previous version of this story included a headline with an incorrect interpretation of Elliott's meaning of "faded." We apologize and regret the error.
1. It's been quite a ride during the pandemic for Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott.
Back in April, he showed no regard for quarantining or social distancing after he was busted for participating in a gathering/party with teammate Dak Prescott.
Then Elliott ended up testing positive for COVID-19 and complained about HIPAA laws on Twitter even though it was his agent who revealed he had the virus.
And now we have Elliott telling everyone he was "low-key faded" on his Twitch stream Sunday night because he forgot to log off.
Quarantine life isn't easy for any of us, but if anyone needs to clean things up, it's Elliott. After wearing a mask and social distancing, the most important thing in life to remember is to always make sure you are logged off before you start riffing.
