Rumor has it that last week, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hosted a large party at his home, and among the guests was running back Ezekiel Elliott.
Obviously, with everything going on surrounding COVID-19 and social distancing, some eyebrows were raised at Prescott's decision to have such a significant amount of people in his house.
However, Prescott denies that he had the massive bash that others have reported:

Initial reports stated that Prescott's party consisted of around 30 people.
Prescott is also in the middle of contract negotiations with the Cowboys, and earlier on Tuesday, it was reported that he would not participate in Dallas' virtual offseason program unless the two sides can reach a long-term deal.
The Cowboys slapped a franchise tag on the 26-year-old last month and have until July to strike a long-term contract with him.
Prescott is coming off of a 2019 campaign in which he threw for 4,902 yards, 30 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions while completing 65.1 percent of his passes and posting a passer rating of 99.7.
