Ezekiel Elliott turned 21 years old today but it certainly is no happy birthday thus far. Elliott started his day being accused of domestic violence by an ex-girlfriend, saying he struck her in a car this morning. She then posted pictures on Instagram of bruises she claimed she got from Elliott. He denies doing anything wrong and witnesses also reported not seeing anything like what Tiffany Thompson was saying. As more details continue to emerge there are now reports that Ezekiel has proof in the form of text messages that his ex was going to try and ruin him.

Thompson posted images on her Instagram account this morning, showing multiple bruises. Ezekiel claims that she already had those courtesy of a bar fight she got into with another woman just a few days ago. Her social media accounts have since been changed to private.

Four different witnesses told police they didn’t see any physical altercation between the two, including one person who was actually in the car with them.

His father, Stacy issued a statement a short time ago.

“The reported allegations and Internet postings regarding our son are completely false,” Stacy Elliott said. “Ezekiel has done nothing wrong. The police have investigated this matter and eyewitnesses have verified the lack of any wrongdoing. The actual evidence in this matter clearly indicates what the real motivation was behind the police being called. We are confident that when the truth comes to light it will reveal the falsity of these claims. Ezekiel has been fully cooperative with the police and will continue to do so — along with cooperating with the NFL — moving forward.”

Mike Leslie, a Dallas area reporter tweeted that that a high ranking member of the Cowboys front office confirmed that Ezekiel has text messages saved on his phone from the same woman because she had threatened to ruin him if he left her.

Now, this still doesn’t mean that something didn’t happen between him and her but at least for the moment, the witnesses and possibly physical proof in Ezekiel’s phone aren’t supporting much of what she has said.
