Tony Pollard Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard won't see much work on the ground as long as Ezekiel Elliott is healthy, but he could be used in many ways in new head coach Mike McCarthy's offense. Pollard compares favorably to Ty Montgomery, who was a receiver also used as a running back under McCarthy in Green Bay. Pollard played receiver at Memphis in college and had two 100-yard rushing games as a fourth-round rookie in 2019. He finished the season with 455 yards on 86 carries and two touchdowns while also catching 15 passes for 107 yards and another score. Pollard's versatile skills set could keep him on the field more often than most people think, and he could be a deep sleeper in PPR leagues.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard ran the ball 14 times in Week 17, gaining 60 yards. He also caught a pass for a five yard gain. Pollard got a bit more play in this one with the Cowboys holding onto a large lead for most of the game. Pollard's rookie season was solid given his limited opportunities. He showed some explosiveness, but will return as nothing more than a handcuff for Ezekiel Elliott owners in 2020.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is not worth starting in fantasy lineups for Week 17. The Cowboys will be in must-win mode against Washington, and with a possibly-ailing Dak Prescott (shoulder) leading the offense, things may go through the ground game. Ezekiel Elliott will be a near every-down player, leaving Pollard to only take the field as a change of pace option.
