Zeke Elliott Remains a Loyal Soldier in the Salvation Army
Zeke Elliott really seems to thrive on Thanksgiving Day, both professionally and spirituallly.
While you won't find the Dallas Cowboys' stud tailback ringing a bell outside of your local Walgreen's, you can be sure he'll find the nearest endzone Salvation Army kettle.
In what's become a wacky yet generous tradition, Elliott decided to expand on his original celebration from 2016.
Instead of depositing himself into the charity drum, Zeke made a more standard donation.
Yep, $21 from No 21.

The symmetry is undeniable.
But the giving had just begun.
Later in the Cowboys emphatic win over the Alex Smith-less Redskins, QB Dak Prescott ran one in for a score and became a prop in the donation scheme.
Giving @Dak!

Runs it in for the TD & jumps in the @SalvationArmyUS red kettle. #FightForGood

That's good, clean fun right there.
Reportedly, Jerry Jones is planning on donating a gratuitous reaction shot during next year's game.
Well, as long as the Master of the Universe is satisfied.
