A U.S. District Judge has temporarily blocked the NFL’s request to expedite Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott’s hearing on his potential six-game suspension. As a result, he will be able to stay on the field once again.

This time, he will be able to play against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. He was also able to play against the San Francisco 49ers as the case dragged on.
