FANTASY PLAYS: Players to start and sit for NFL Week 7 Can we finally start Tony Pollard

OCTOBER 19, 2022 • DAILYHERALD.COM

Modest output on 13 touches Pollard rushed 11 times for 44 yards and caught two of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 26-17 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Pollard tied his season high in touches with 13, but he was bottled up outside of an isolated 15-yard rush. Veteran counterpart Ezekiel Elliott looked like the more-explosive back in a tough matchup against Philly's defense, which doesn't line up with the trends we saw from both players through Dallas' previous five contests. The good news for Pollard's fantasy managers is that the Lions and their 32nd-ranked rush defense are on tap next Sunday.

Another long TD in Sunday's win Pollard carried the ball eight times for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-10 win over the Rams.

Impact His incredible 57-yard TD run in the second quarter, in which Pollard broke multiple tackles, gave the Cowboys a lead they didn't relinquish. The fourth-year back continues to be the more dangerous option in the Dallas backfield, but Ezekiel Elliott is still the one seeing more touches heading into a Week 6 clash with Philadelphia.

Playing Sunday Pollard (illness) is active for Sunday's contest at the Rams, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact An illness kept Pollard off the practice field Friday, but he was able to travel with the team to L.A. and now has been cleared for Week 5 action. He'll continue to work in a complementary role alongside Ezekiel Elliott, which has featured two outings with at least 90 yards from scrimmage and two others with fewer than 25 total yards this season.

Traveling with team Pollard (illness) will travel with the team ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact This is positive news considering Pollard missed Friday's practice with an illness. It's also encouraging the Cowboys didn't call up a running back from the practice squad. Expect more news regarding the veteran's status to emerge throughout the weekend ahead of the team's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.

Questionable due to illness Pollard missed Friday's practice due to an illness and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Patrick Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact The end-of-week addition to the injury report could set up a game-time decision ahead of the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, though Pollard shouldn't be in danger of missing more than the one game because of an illness. If Pollard isn't available, Ezekiel Elliott likely would handle more than his usual 60-65 percent of snaps, with Rico Dowdle providing support off the bench.

Struggles from scrimmage Pollard ran for six yards on eight carries against Washington on Sunday and caught one pass for two yards on three targets.

Impact The Washington defense prioritized shutting down the Dallas ground game in this one, so Pollard and to a lesser extent Ezekiel Elliott (49 yards on 19 carries) struggled to get any traction with their touches Sunday. A Week 5 matchup against the Rams isn't an obvious source of encouragement for Pollard as he looks to bounce back, but this box score should prove an anomaly going forward.
