Fantasy Impact:

This is not the first or last time Elliott will have a 'Q' tag and play. Fire him up as an RB1 against the Patriots.

Cowboys Beat: RB Tony Pollard has ability to hit home runs

The Athletic

Sep 21, 2021 · 1:38 PM EDT

The next item that should be discussed is the performance of Tony Pollard. We are in Year 3 of Pollard’s four-year rookie deal and it is obvious that he is a weapon that must be included in every game plan. Without turning this automatically into a Pollard vs. Ezekiel Elliott debate, it should be obvious to anyone who follows these games that Pollard has a component that Elliott can not offer — the ability to hit home runs regularly.

Fantasy Impact:

The story goes into great deal about Pollard and his ability. One point to talk about here is the difference between Pollard’s role in Week 1 vs. Week 2. The author feels Pollard has to be a mandatory feature in the offense and he points out Pollard had seven touches on opening weekend and that raced up to 16 in Week 2. The story said Pollard can do whatever the team needs, calling him an explosive running back. It's looking like Pollard has stand-alone value, at least in a little deeper of leagues, but his workload is worth monitoring in all leagues.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 16. Elliott didn't practice at all last week so three limited practices should equate to availability on Sunday. His workload is uncertain given Tony Pollard's recent production.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (calf, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 15. Elliott was limited all last week and ultimately split the backfield work with Tony Pollard, so this is a downgrade. Both Mike McCarthy (per Todd Archer) and Jerry Jones (per Michael Gehlken) said that they expect Elliott to play on Sunday. Thankfully, the Cowboys play early on Sunday.

Jerry Jones: Ezekiel Elliott's workload will not diminish

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told 105.3 The Fan Friday that RB Ezekiel Elliott's workload would not be diminished the rest of the season.

Fantasy Impact:

Elliott has been a disappointment as a high first round pick in fantasy this season. His fumbling issues and general lack of efficiency is not entirely his problem, but teammate Tony Pollard has shined in smaller bursts despite the situation. The Cowboys are on their bye week.

Nov 06, 2020 · 7:27 PM EST

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 9. Elliott looks a little iffy for Week 9 and the Cowboys play late. Tony Pollard might see an expanded workload this week but the matchup is a tough one. If Elliott plays, he'll be a risky start given a potentially limited workload against the Steelers.
