Ezekiel Elliott will be in New York on Monday to attend a preliminary injunction hearing that could decide whether he remains on the field for the rest of the season or is forced to miss the next six games.

"We're confident in our argument," Elliott said. "We're confident that I'll be on the field for the rest of the year."

The Dallas Cowboys running back attended a similar hearing in Texas before the season started when he first appeared at a preliminary injunction that was eventually vacated by the appellate court.

A decision on the injunction could come in the early part of the week.
