Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension took another turn Friday night. 

Earlier in the week, the NFL upheld its suspension of Elliott.

Friday night, a Texas district court granted Elliott a preliminary injunction against the league's suspension.

The injunction will allow Elliott to play the entire 2017 season (or at least until the court adjudicates the case).
