Tony Pollard Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard only touched the ball five times in Week 2. He ran the ball four times for 22 yards and caught a pass for three more yards. With starter Ezekiel Elliott back to his full workload, Pollard took a back seat as expected. Still one of the league's highest upside handcuffs, Pollard won't have much standalone value as long as Elliott is on the field.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is just a backup for Week 2 and should not be in any starting lineups. Pollard got 13 carries in Week 1, tying with Ezekiel Elliott for the team lead, but could only gain 24 yards. With Ezekiel Elliott now expected to play his full workload, Pollard will be one of the higher-upside handcuffs in fantasy football, but little more. He's only going to be a starting option if Elliott is forced to miss time.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard received 13 carries in his first NFL game in Week 1. He wasn't able to find much room though, averaging just 1.8 yards per carry and totaling 24 yards on the ground. Pollard was ticketed for a much bigger role when starter Ezekiel Elliott was involved in a contract dispute with the team, but with Elliott back on the team, the two backs both ended up with 13 carries. Going forward, Elliott will certainly receive the vast majority of the team's carries, leaving Pollard as a potential high-upside handcuff, but little more in most fantasy formats.
