Tony Pollard Fantasy

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard should see plenty of chances to touch the ball in Week 6. Pollard has averaged almost 13 touches per game this season and while that won't be enough for RB1 consideration, it's certainly enough to paint him as a solid, reliable RB3/FLEX option. Pollard has shown the ability to do a lot with his limited touches, as he leads all running backs in yards per carry with 6.4. While he may not have the ceiling to win your fantasy week, he certainly has a solid, consistent floor and won't be the reason you lose either.

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard had another strong performance in Week 5's win over the New York Giants, totaling over 100 yards. He ran the ball 14 times for 75 yards and made four catches for 28 additional yards. Starter Ezekiel Elliott saw 23 touches to Pollard's 18, but whenever the Cowboys play with positive game script, Pollard should be able to see about a dozen touches. Elliott is the superior back and the better fantasy option, but Pollard can be a reliable FLEX option with nice upside whenever the Cowboys have a good matchup. Week 6 against the Patriots should be one of those.

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard had an enormous performance in Week 2 and has remained a solid contributor, averaging 10.5 rush attempts per game. Still, he hasn't been able to amass too many fantasy points while playing behind starter Ezekiel Elliott. With Elliott (knee) dealing with a minor knee injury, there always remains the possibility that he can aggravate the injury or be pulled early if the Cowboys have the game in hand early. Pollard has shown the ability to have RB1 upside, but his range of outcomes is quite wide because of his playing time. He's safer as an RB3/low-ceiling FLEX option for Week 5.
