Tony Pollard Will Play In Week 18
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) practiced in full all week and will play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Pollard was removed from Friday's final injury report and is just 12 rushing yards shy of his first 1,000-yard season. It's been a great season for the 25-year-old, as he's been a top-10 fantasy RB despite sharing the backfield with Ezekiel Elliott. Pollard sat out of last Thursday's win over the Tennessee Titans and although he'll be active this weekend, it's fair to wonder if he'll see a big enough role to be worth using in DFS and season-long fantasy lineups. The main priority will be for the Cowboys to head into the playoffs with a fully healthy Pollard. Dallas can still win the NFC East with a win and an Eagles loss, but don't be surprised if Pollard takes a back seat to Zeke in this one.
Jan 6, 2023 • 10:11 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Puts In Full Practice Wednesday
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Pollard was held out as a precaution on a short week in last Thursday's win over the Tennessee Titans, but he's on track to return in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Dallas could still win the NFC East and secure the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC with a win and some help this weekend, so they'll likely approach this like any other game. Still, it remains to be seen how much the 25-year-old will actually play if he's active on Sunday. In half-point PPR setups this year, Pollard has been the RB7 with 988 rushing yards and nine touchdowns, adding 39 catches, 371 yards and three more TDs. If he returns and sees a sizeable workload, it will obviously hurt Ezekiel Elliott's fantasy ceiling.
Jan 5, 2023 • 12:19 AM | RotoBallerTony Pollard To Practice Wednesday
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) will return to practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. Pollard was held out of last Thursday's win over the Tennessee Titans, but he could be on track to return for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Washington Commanders in a game in which Dallas could be playing for the NFC East title and the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC. Pollard has been a top-10 fantasy RB this year, but you'll have to monitor his practice status this week before Sunday's game. Even with seeding still on the line in Week 18, Dallas could choose to limit Pollard's snaps if he's active against Washington. Meanwhile, backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott is looking to close out the regular season with a 10-game touchdown streak.
Jan 2, 2023 • 11:12 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Won't Play Thursday Night
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) will be inactive on Thursday night against the Tennessee Titans, according to a source. Pollard came into the short week highly questionable, and it's not much of a surprise that the Cowboys are holding him out so that he'll be healthy for the postseason. It will be his first missed game of 2022, and it couldn't come at a worse time for fantasy managers in championship week in most leagues. The 25-year-old has been more explosive than backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott and is the RB7 in half-point PPR formats this year. In any event, Elliott will have more fantasy upside with Pollard out as he looks to find the end zone for the ninth straight game. Rookie Malik Davis will back up Elliott on Thursday night.
Dec 29, 2022 • 7:03 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard's Status Very Much In Doubt
The status of Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) is very much in doubt for the Thursday night game against the Tennessee Titans. Pollard is listed as questionable for the Week 17 game, but he didn't practice at all this week. The Cowboys will put Pollard through an early pre-game workout, but they will err on the side of caution. If it's close, Pollard will be inactive, which obviously would open the door for backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott to have a much bigger role as Dallas' lead back. Fantasy managers that have made it to their championship matchup this week need to be prepared to go in another direction at RB if Pollard, the RB7 in half-point PPR scoring this year, isn't given the green light. Check back 90 minutes before kickoff on Thursday night to see if Pollard will actually play.
Dec 29, 2022 • 5:01 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard A Game-Time Decision For Thursday Night
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) is a game-time decision for Thursday's game against the Tennessee Titans. Due to a thigh injury, the 25-year-old is listed as questionable for Thursday Night Football. He will test out his injured thigh during pregame warmups and will have to prove his health to avoid being inactive. This season, the former fourth-round pick has been excellent in a one-two-punch combination with Ezekiel Elliott. Pollard has rushed for 988 yards and nine touchdowns while catching 39 passes for 371 yards and three scores over 15 games in 2022. Elliott is expected to receive most of the carries and remains a must-start, while Malik Davis could receive additional touches if Pollard is ruled out for Week 17.
Dec 29, 2022 • 3:12 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard To Be Evaluated In Pregame On Thursday
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) is going to be evaluated in pregame before their Week 17 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Pollard has not practiced once this week, leaving his status for Thursday Night Football in doubt. Even with the 25-year-old still questionable, it wouldn't make much sense for the Cowboys to rush him back. The Titans are resting nearly every impactful player on their roster in preparation for their Week 18 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, making this game a lopsided affair. Fantasy managers should monitor Pollard's status in pregame, but expect to be without him for championship week.
Dec 29, 2022 • 6:02 AM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Questionable For Thursday Night
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) has been listed as questionable to suit up for a Week 17 bout with the Tennessee Titans. Pollard did not participate in practice all week, but is traveling with the team to Nashville and will likely be a true game-time decision for Thursday night's contest. Fantasy managers should monitor the situation closely as Pollard is obviously worth starting if active. If he is declared out, additional opportunities would be available for rookie Malik Davis, but Ezekiel Elliott could be in line for a massive workload.
Dec 28, 2022 • 11:23 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Picks Up Another DNP
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) was listed as a non-participant at practice on Tuesday for the second straight day. It was originally reported Tuesday morning that Pollard would return to practice, but that wasn't actually the case. The 25-year-old's status for the Week 17 game against the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night is now very much up in the air, which is bad news for fantasy managers that plan on starting him in their championship matchups this week. He'll probably need to practice in some fashion on Wednesday to avoid being ruled out entirely. If Pollard is out or limited at all against Tennessee, Ezekiel Elliott would see a bigger workload as Dallas' primary back. Rookie Malik Davis would be backing Elliott up.
Dec 28, 2022 • 2:44 AM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Will Practice Tuesday
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (thigh) will take part in practice on Tuesday. Pollard picked up a DNP in Monday's estimated practice report, but owner Jerry Jones said Pollard "looks good for the game" on Thursday against the Tennessee Titans to kick off Week 17 action. It's good news for the 25-year-old and for fantasy managers relying on him in their championship matchups this week, but we'll have to keep a close eye on his status leading up to Thursday night's game. In the Week 16 win over the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, Pollard played 53 percent of the offensive snaps and had only nine carries for 19 yards while adding six receptions for 61 yards. It was the first time he hadn't seen double-digit carries since Week 5. If he plays this week, he'll be at risk of losing more touches to backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott.
Dec 27, 2022 • 5:00 PM | RotoBallerCeeDee Lamb, Tony Pollard Officially Active Sunday
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (groin) and running back Tony Pollard (illness) are both active for Week 5 against the Los Angeles Rams. Despite being listed as questionable, Lamb's activation for Sunday's game was widely expected. He has totaled 21 catches, 259 yards, and two touchdowns over his last three games, showing a very strong connection with Cooper Rush. Meanwhile, Pollard, who was also listed as questionable, has amassed 162 rushing yards, 71 receiving yards, and one touchdown through four games this season. He should be viewed as a mid-to-low RB3 in fantasy football on Sunday.
Oct 9, 2022 • 7:00 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Expected To Play In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (illness) is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Despite being listed as questionable, Pollard traveled with the team to the West Coast and the Cowboys opted not to promote a running back from the practice squad. As a result, he will play in Week 5, barring a pregame setback. The 25-year-old has amassed 162 rushing yards, 71 receiving yards, and one touchdown through four games this season. He should be viewed as a mid-to-low RB3 in fantasy football on Sunday.
Oct 9, 2022 • 12:20 PM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Travels With Team To Los Angeles
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (illness) traveled with the team to Los Angeles on Saturday. He is listed as questionable ahead of Week 5 against the Rams, but the fact that he joined the team on their trip to the West Coast is a good sign. Additionally, the Cowboys opted not to promote a running back from the practice squad, another suggestion that Pollard figures into the Cowboys' plans on Sunday. If active, he should be viewed as an RB3 in fantasy football.
Oct 9, 2022 • 1:46 AM | RotoBallerTony Pollard Questionable With Illness
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (illness) missed practice on Friday and is now listed as questionable to play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5. It's bad news for anyone that was considering starting Pollard this Sunday against LA. He'll become a much riskier flex play with the Cowboys game not starting until later on Sunday afternoon. If the 25-year-old isn't able to gain clearance this weekend, Ezekiel Elliott should be more of a bell-cow back for Dallas, with Rico Dowdle serving in a chance-of-pace role. Pollard went over 100 yards rushing in Week 3, but he came back down to Earth in last week's win over the Washington Commanders with eight carries for just six yards while catching one of three targets for two yards.
