When it comes to football, Ezekiel Elliott has been saying all the right things.

Before he was selected fourth overall by the Cowboys in the 2016 NFL draft on April 28, Elliott said Dallas has "the best offensive line in football" and that it would be "an honor" to run behind it.

"You've got some vets around you that you can learn a lot from. You can learn a lot from [Tony] Romo. You can learn a lot from Jason Witten. You can learn a lot from Dez [Bryant]," Elliott said April 27 in Chicago. "I think it would be a good situation for me. I could go in there and I can learn and I can develop."

And since his arrival to the Dallas-Fort Worth area? He's spoken fondly of the fan base, said wearing Emmitt Smith's No. 22 jersey "would've been kind of disrespectful" and is not shying away from lofty expectations.

Wednesday night, he addressed ... hockey.

LETS GO BLUES — Ezekiel Elliott (@EzekielElliott) May 12, 2016

Ouch. That was tweeted during Game 7 of the Dallas Stars-St. Louis Blues series, which the Stars lost 6-1 on home ice.

But, this point must be brought up: All Zeke did was support his hometown team, so it's tough to blame him for sticking to his roots. You can read all about his early life and how he got to this point in his career here.

He also joked that he was cheering on a family member in Blues goaltender Brian Elliott, which totally makes it OK. (Right?)

Dang I didn't know I couldn't root for my cousin @KidElls1 — Ezekiel Elliott (@EzekielElliott) May 12, 2016

Oh, Zeke. How did fans -- local or not -- react to his supporting of the Blues? Well ...

Staying true to the roots. I like it. #LGB — Nick Mensio (@NickMensio) May 12, 2016
