Ezekiel was born in Creve Coeur, MO at Mercy Hospital located at 615 S New Ballas Rd, Creve Coeur, MO 63141. I am his mother, and if you would like, I will scan a copy of his birth certificate for you. I know where my son was born. Just because we moved to Alton when he was 5 years old, does not mean he was born there. I kow he is a fuck me with an email address so that I may scan in his birth certificate and send it to you all, so that you can keep this correct and stop changing it back to Alton, IL. EZEKIEL WAS NOT BORN IN ALTON, IL! I am more than willing to prove it to you as well.

Does not have to be those specific stat lines (7 and 8), but i'm suggesting adding those two stat variables to the list in some form. Request is current with the week 10 Results.

On November 13, 2016, he had his best game statistically to date, when he accounted for 203 total yards and three of the Cowboy's touchdowns. During the victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Elliott had his first career touchdown after catching a pass from fellow rookie Dak Prescott and taking it for an 83-yard touchdown and ran 32-yards for the game-winning touchdown with Rodrspv ( talk) 23:02, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

Ezekiel Elliot was not awarded NFL Rookie of the Year Awards, he was noted as Fed Ex Ground Player of the Year, as of yet there is no acronym of way of listing this...save for in their biography under list of achievements/accomplishments. Thus, it should be excised to conform with current standards in their initial height/weight and other information section.
"Please remove NFL Rookie of the Year (2016) in their about section...to FED Ex Ground Rookie of the Year"...or something analogous.

Remove Individual Awards section, change/add to Awards section.
A few reasons; the individual awards section becomes redundant in a variety of ways -- much of what is in the section is mentioned in the preceding 'College Football' section. Whether the Individual Awards is supposed to be a subsection or not really doesn't make a difference, it's just something that doesn't need to be there. What's not listed in the preceding section should just be listed under awards -- although I intend on providing a contextual edit to each of the Career sections, at minimum. For the changes to the Awards section, and specifcally formatting, this will make it easier to add any additional awards that:
It also allows for increased readability when scrolling through the awards (instead of having a slew of 2014, 2015, 2016, etc plus multiples (i.e., 4x, 2x), Week numbers, just to name a few.

Please edit Ezekiel Elliott's "Personal Life" to include the fact that he was suspended for six games to start the 2017 NFL season following a domestic violence incident in July of 2016. Suspensions are included on the pages for other NFL athletes, and even though no criminal charges were filed against him, accusations of domestic violence are newsworthy. I believe a fair edit would read something like this:
On August 11, 2017, the NFL announced its decision to suspend Elliot for the first six games of the 2017 NFL season following an investigation into accusations of domestic violence from July 2016. [1] Tiffany Thompson accused Elliot of abusing her on three separate occasions during the week of July 16, 2016. Ohio police officials declined to press charges against Elliott. [1] The NFL investigation, however, found that there was "no persuasive evidence presented on [Elliott's] behalf with respect to how Ms. Thompson's obvious injuries were incurred other than conjecture based on the presence of some of her bruising which pre-dates [Elliot's] arrival in Columbus on July 16, 2016. [1] Elliott filed an appeal to the Commissioner's suspension decision on August 16, 2017. [1] 205.149.22.9 ( talk) 16:15, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
