Tony Pollard Could See An Increased Role In Week 15
4 years agoDallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard saw an increased role in Week 14 and may get that uptick in chances again in Week 15. Pollard has run behind starter Ezekiel Elliott all season, but with Elliott dealing with a calf injury, Pollard ended up with only one touch less than the starter in Week 14. Pollard has occasionally looked explosive while Elliott has struggled, leading the team to seem more confident in using their backup. Still, Week 15 is a very difficult matchup as the 49ers Defense is the fourth best unit against running backs. Pollard should be rostered and will have some deep league FLEX appeal, but isn't quite a starting option in standard formats at this point.
