Hearing scheduled for today, but injunction could delay final ruling
Rob Guerrera (@StatsOnFire) on Twitter: “@ProFootballTalk says the Zeke Elliott appeal is probably going to go to court, which means there’s a “very good chance” he plays week one.”

Nerdy Football Analysis: There’s a range of possibilities covered in Jason Katz’s excellent Aug. 11 article: http://www.fftoday.com/articles/katz/17_ezekiel_elliott.html
But Mike Florio could have inside knowledge of Elliott’s plans to have a court file an injunction, and given the convoluted nature of previous suspensions, including Deflategate and the Saints bounty scandal, Zeke might actually be available for Week 1, even if the six games stands at the end of today.
