Elliott, who rushed 22 times for 96 yards and a TD in the opener, is known for celebrating by pretending to use a spoon after rushing for first downs. Now, Elliott is using that brand messaging to help others in a different sport.
Elliott, a bowling fan, collaborated with designer Marcus Rivero as part of the Cowboys’ partnership with Main Event to create several pairs of custom bowling shoes. Elliott was not able to participate in a fundraiser with teammates this summer because of COVID-19.

So, Main Event will be auctioning those shoes with the proceeds going to the North Texas Food Bank. The shoes feature Elliott’s “Stay Hungry” motto with a spoon and his jersey number. Bids can be made online.
“North Texas Food Bank is an organization I strongly support and when Main Event approached me with this idea of a custom bowling shoe, I couldn’t think of a better way to help raise money than by auctioning off a custom signed pair,” Elliott said in the news release.
