THIS MATTER having been opened by the National Football League Players Association,
on its own behalf and on behalf of Ezekiel Elliot, upon Motion for Temporary Restraining Order
and Preliminary Injunction, and the Court, having considered the Motion, is of the opinion that the
Motion is meritorious;
THE COURT FINDS that: (1) a substantial likelihood exists that Mr. Elliott will prevail
on the merits; (2) there is a substantial threat of irreparable injury to Mr. Elliott if the temporary
restraining order is not issued; (3) the threatened injury to Mr. Elliott if the temporary restraining
order is not issued outweighs any harm that will result if the order is issued; and (4) the grant of
the temporary restraining order will not disserve the public interest.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendants, the National Football League and the
National Football League Management Council (collectively, the NFL or Defendants), their
agents, servants, employees, and attorneys are hereby temporarily restrained from instituting any
suspension against Mr. Elliott pending resolution of this action, effective immediately.
