Anthem talk, Elliott’s legal setback hound Cowboys at break

FILE – In this Sept. 25, 2017, file photo, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, left, and head coach Jason Garrett, second from right, stand with their players for the national anthem prior to an NFL football game against the Arizona Cardinals in Glendale, Ariz. The Cowboys already have as many losses as last year’s NFC East champ, they’re dogged by anthem questions because of their outspoken owner and their defense looks eerily similar to the lost season of 2015. The bye wasn’t offering much of a break from the mental grind of the season. (AP Photo/Matt York, File)
