Tony Pollard News
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard has been a semi-reliable fantasy option throughout the years. He finished 2021 with 130 rushing attempts for 719 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught 39 receptions for 337 yards. However, despite being relegated to the No. 2 spot on the depth chart behind Ezekiel Elliott, the 25-year-old may get an increased role this season, with recent rumblings suggesting he might get consistent work catching passes out of the slot. While Pollard is likely to take over as the workhorse once again if another ailment limits Elliott, it appears he could be much more than just an insurance policy in 2022-23.
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) practiced in full all week for the first time since he tore his plantar fascia on Dec. 2, and he will play in Sunday's wild-card game against the San Francisco 49ers. Pollard was rested in the Week 18 regular season finale last Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles. "Tony looks great. I think definitely the time off helped him, too. Tony looks like he's back to 100%," head coach Mike McCarthy said. In three games played since his foot injury, Pollard is averaging 5.09 yards per carry on 23 attempts and 9.75 yards per catch on eight receptions (11 targets). He's been more efficient than Ezekiel Elliott this year and should continue to mix and match with Zeke in Dallas' backfield. The matchup against the 49ers isn't the greatest, but Pollard isn't a bad RB2 or flex in DFS lineups for wild-card weekend.
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) put in a full practice on Wednesday to begin the week. The Cowboys said earlier this week that Pollard would be good to go for the wild-card game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, and his full practice on Wednesday mirrors that statement. Dallas held Pollard out of their Week 18 regular season finale last weekend as a precaution while he manages a torn plantar fascia in his foot that he suffered in Week 13. Pollard looked pretty healthy in his final three regular season games, though, totaling 31 touches for 195 scrimmage yards. He should continue mixing in behind Ezekiel Elliott and makes for a decent No. 2 DFS RB at his $5,300 price tag at DraftKings this weekend.

Make no mistake about it, Tony Pollard is Ezekiel Elliott's backup. That's been clear the past three seasons. The Cowboys continue to be hamstrung by Zeke's six-year, $90M contract extension signed back in 2019 and are essentially forced to give...
