No room to operate Sunday
Pollard (foot) rushed nine times for 15 yards and caught two of four targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 23-13 loss to Minnesota.
Analysis: The Titans' rushing attack was abysmal against the Vikings' front, generating just 33 yards on 19 attempts as a team. Pollard was battling a foot injury during the practice week before gaining clearance for Sunday, but Tennessee's offensive line wouldn't have even been able to create enough push for Derrick Henry had he stayed with the club this past offseason. Pollard should produce better results against Houston next Sunday.

Good to go against Vikings
Pollard (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: Pollard steadily increased his practice participation level throughout the week, capping Week 11 preparation with a full practice Friday following a DNP on Wednesday and a limited showing Thursday. He remains the lead back in Tennessee, though Pollard saw a decrease in usage following Tyjae Spears' return from a hamstring injury in Week 10 against the Chargers. Pollard got only nine carries in the 27-17 loss to Los Angeles after averaging 21.3 carries during Spears' three-game absence.

Limited due to foot issue
Pollard was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a foot injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Pollard's lack of participation in Wednesday's practice was attributed to rest, he's now appearing on the Titans' injury report with a foot issue attached to his name. Pollard had shown up on Titans reports the past two weeks with the same injury and was ultimately cleared to play in games against the Patriots and Chargers, and assuming he's able to continue practicing in some fashion Friday, he should have a good chance at suiting up this Sunday versus the Vikings. Even so, Pollard may…read more

Only 13 touches in loss
Pollard rushed the ball nine times for 44 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Chargers. He added three receptions on three targets for four yards.
Analysis: Pollard suffered an apparent lower-body injury in the second quarter that caused him to miss a couple series, and the return of Tyjae Spears also cost Pollard some work. The result was Pollard recording his lowest touch and yardage total since Week 3. He should remain a key part of the Tennessee offense, but he's likely to settle into leading a more evenly split backfield moving forward.

Cleared for Week 10
Pollard (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers after returning to a limited practice Friday.
Analysis: Fellow RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring) doesn't carry a Week 10 injury designation, either, and thus is set to return from a three-game absence. Pollard, who is coming off a 28-carry, 128-yard effort in a Week 9 overtime win over the Patriots, is on track to remain the Titans' lead back this weekend. The return of Spears should allow the team to ease Pollard's workload to a degree, but presumably not to an extent that would prevent him from maintaining fantasy utility versus Los Angeles.

Back at practice
Pollard (foot) was spotted at practice Friday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Pollard (foot) didn't practice Thursday, but the running back's return to the field a day later suggests that his absence was maintenance-related. Friday's injury report will reveal whether Pollard carries an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, but at this stage he should be available this weekend.

Doesn't practice Thursday
Pollard (foot) didn't practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Pollard was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, so his downgrade in activity a day later is notable. That said, the running back didn't practice ahead of Week 9 action and was able to log an 86 percent snap share in this past Sunday's win over the Patriots, carrying 28 times for 128 yards and adding three catches for 26 yards in the contest. With no reported setbacks, it's plausible that Pollard's DNP on Thursday could be maintenance-related.

Limited to begin Week 10 prep
Pollard (foot) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Both of the Titans' top two running backs are operating with restrictions to begin Week 10 prep, as Tyjae Spears (hamstring) was also a limited participant after missing the team's last three games. Pollard hasn't missed a game this season, and his availability for Sunday's game against the Chargers doesn't appear to be in any danger after he racked up 54 touches en route to 271 scrimmage yards over Tennessee's past two contests. Still, a full practice from Pollard on Thursday or Friday would…read more

Heavy workload against NE
Pollard rushed the ball 28 times for 128 yards in Sunday's 29-17 overtime win against the Patriots. He added three receptions on three targets for 26 yards.
Analysis: Pollard entered Sunday's game questionable due to a foot injury after failing to practice in any capacity throughout the week. That was hardly apparent in Sunday's win, as he dominated rushing attempts out of the Titans' backfield and was also efficient with the opportunity. He accounted for the team's longest play from scrimmage with a 32-yard rush on Tennessee's first possession, setting up a touchdown on the next play. Overall, four of Pollard's 28 carries went for double-digit gains, and he…read more

Playing through foot injury
Pollard is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Pollard appeared to be trending toward an absence, as he failed to practice in any capacity throughout the week. However, he tested his foot in pregame warmups and is feeling well enough to suit up. Assuming his foot holds up, he should see a heavy dose of touches considering the ongoing absence of Tyjae Spears (hamstring), though both Julius Chestnut and Joshua Kelley are available to spell Pollard if required.

Trending toward playing Sunday
Pollard remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, but the Titans "feel good" about him and "anticipate he will play," Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Analysis: Pollard didn't practice at all this week, but he plans to test his injured foot out during a pregame workout Sunday, and if all goes well, he should get the green light to play. The fact that fellow running back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) has already been ruled out for Sunday makes Pollard's status more consequential for Tennessee, though the team did sign running back Joshua Kelley to the active roster off the practice squad Saturday. Julius Chestnut is the only other healthy running back on the…read more

Status up in air for Week 9
Pollard (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Patriots.
Analysis: Pollard didn't practice at all this week due to a foot injury, but the Titans are giving him a chance to play Sunday. The reasoning may be that fellow RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game, leaving Julius Chestnut as the lone healthy running back on the active roster and Joshua Kelley as a candidate to be elevated from the practice squad. Pollard's status will be clarified no later than 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Sits out second straight practice
Pollard (foot) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.
Analysis: Pollard's absence from practice for a second straight day due to the foot injury clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Patriots. The Titans will see what, if anything, Pollard is able to do during Friday's session before determining his availability for the Week 9 contest. Pollard has taken on at least 18 touches in each of Tennessee's last four games, but if the foot issue keeps him out against New England or if he's available to take on only a limited workload, Tyjae Spears…read more

Misses practice with foot injury
Pollard sat out Wednesday's practice with a foot injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The Titans provided no indication that Pollard was nursing an injury during Sunday's 52-14 loss at Detroit, as he took 24 touches for 117 yards while playing 80 percent of the snaps on offense. Even if the foot injury doesn't keep him from playing Week 9 against New England, Pollard faces a risk of his role being scaled back, as fellow running back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) managed a limited practice Wednesday after missing the past two games.

Strong showing against Lions
Pollard rushed the ball 20 times for 94 yards in Sunday's 52-14 loss to the Lions. He added three receptions on four targets for 23 yards.
Analysis: Pollard was among the few bright spots for Tennessee in the loss, tallying two rushes of more than 15 yards while also recording a 17-yard reception. That combination allowed him to top 100 total yards from scrimmage in a game for only the second time this season. While Pollard is being held back by the Tennessee offense, he has at least 19 touches in five of seven contests on the campaign.

Inefficient against Bills
Pollard rushed the ball 16 times for 61 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Bills. He added two receptions on six targets for four yards.
Analysis: As expected, Pollard dominated work out of Tennessee's backfield with Tyjae Spears (hamstring) sidelined, as he accounted for 16 of the 19 carries by running backs. However, he was scripted out of the game in the second half -- he had only three carries across the final two quarters -- and also struggled to get going as a receiver with Mason Rudolph under center. Pollard should continue to get plenty of work in Week 8, but a matchup against Detroit will provide him with another stout defense…read more

Lone bright spot in loss
Pollard rushed 17 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for minus-5 yards in the Titans' 20-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: On a day when Will Levis threw for under 100 yards, Pollard's production on the ground against the Colts' notoriously poor defense was the one bright spot for Tennessee. The veteran running back also recorded his third touchdown of the campaign on an impressive 23-yard run in the third quarter, helping Pollard to a new season high in rushing yardage. Pollard will next take aim at the Bills' defense in a Week 7 road matchup.

Heavy workload in Week 4 win
Pollard rushed 22 times for 88 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 20 yards in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Pollard set up the game's first touchdown with a 41-yard run, as Tyjae Spears ran it in from seven yards out on the next play. The former Cowboys running back scored one of his own from four yards out in the final minute, giving Pollard two touchdowns through four games with the Titans. He finished with 22 carries to Spears' 15 as the Titans lost quarterback Will Levis to a shoulder injury early and went run-heavy against the offensively challenged Dolphins.

Disappointing Week 3 showing
Pollard rushed the ball six times for 14 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers. He added three receptions on four targets for 15 yards.
Analysis: Though the limited volume suggests otherwise, Pollard operated as Tennessee's lead back by accounting for nine of the team's RB's 15 total touches, including six of eight rushing attempts. Game script didn't work in his favor, however, as the Titans never led and were down 10 points by the end of the first quarter and never closed that gap. While this was a disappointing performance for Pollard, he should be in for a bounceback spot against a struggling Dolphins team in Week 4.

Another hefty workload Sunday
Pollard rushed 17 times for 62 yards and secured five of six targets for 40 yards in the Titans' 24-17 loss to the Jets on Sunday.
Analysis: Pollard once again was the clear lead back for the Titans' ground attack, although the fact backfield mate Tyjae Spears exited the game in the second half with an ankle injury, per Jim Wyatt of the team's official site, certainly helped lock in that standing. Nevertheless, Pollard has been the clear-cut top option through two games when both backs have been healthy, and his involvement as a pass catcher (10 total targets) has been very encouraging. Pollard next takes aim at the Packers' suspect…read more

Clearly leads TEN backfield
Pollard rushed the ball 16 times for 82 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Bears. He added three receptions on four targets for 12 yards.
Analysis: The Titans' coaching staff was adamant that the backfield would be split evenly between Pollard and Tyjae Spears, though Pollard dominated Week 1 work by tallying 19 touches to Spears' eight. Pollard also saw each of the first eight carries, with Spears not tallying his first carry until early in the second quarter. The veteran shined in his debut with Tennessee, highlighted by a 26-yard touchdown scamper late in the first quarter while also supplementing that with gains of 14 and 11 yards.

Still looking at split backfield
Pollard is expected to split time evenly with Tyjae Spears to begin the season, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Offensive coordinator Nick Holz said that he expects the backs to split snaps evenly and that each has plays specifically tailored to them in the offense. Pollard suffered through a surprisingly inefficient 2023 season with the Cowboys, but he's now roughly 18 months removed from suffering a fractured leg and showed explosiveness as both a runner and pass catcher during preseason action.

Scores TD in preseason finale
Pollard rushed five times for 17 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 30-27 preseason win over the Saints.
Analysis: Pollard got all six touches in Tennessee's backfield on the opening drive, the last of which was a one-yard touchdown run. Tyjae Spears got the first three carries on the second possession while the rest of the first-team offense remained in the game, but Pollard checked back in to pick up a 14-yard catch on fourth-and-1.

Leads backfield in debut with TEN
Pollard rushed four times for 35 yards and a caught both of his targets for 11 yards in Saturday's 17-13 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Pollard was the first back utilized in Saturday's preseason opener and wound up leading the team with six combined touches for 46 yards. Tyjae Spears finished with just four total yards on four touches in the exhibition win, but he scored the only rushing touchdown out of the duo. Pollard showed good burst and acceleration in his brief debut Saturday, and he remains the preferred fantasy target out of Tennessee's backfield as we enter draft season.

Interchangeable with Spears
Titans coach Brian Callahan said Tuesday he doesn't view either Pollard or Tyjae Spears as the clear-cut starter in the backfield, Jim Wyatt of the team's official website reports.
Analysis: "The fun part for me is, how are we going to deploy those guys?," Callahan said. "Maybe they both play at the same time, maybe one gets hot and you let him run, maybe we just rotate back and forth. I don't know what that's going to look like yet. But they are both going to play quite a bit of football for us, and I don't view either one of them as a starter or a backup. They are both starting players to me."

Set to sign with Tennessee
Pollard is slated to sign a three-year, $24 million deal with the Titans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: With the looming move, it appears as though Derrick Henry will be playing elsewhere in 2024, while Dallas will be in the running back market in free agency and/or the draft. Pollard is now slated to join a backfield that also includes 2023 third-rounder Tyjae Spears, a context that figures to result in some form of an RB timeshare in Tennessee this coming season.

Analysis: Schefter is reporting the same thing about Raiders RB Josh Jacobs and Giants RB Saquon Barkley, both of whom received franchise tags last offseason (just like Pollard). Each of the three suffered a statistical decline from 2022 to 2023, especially in terms of yards per carry, though Pollard did better late in the season and ultimately snuck over 1,000 rushing yards for the year.

Finds end zone in loss to Packers
Pollard carried the ball 15 times for 56 yards and a touchdown and caught seven of nine targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 48-32 wild-card loss to Green Bay.
Analysis: The fifth-year back had a solid day, seeing some early success on the ground and punching in a one-yard touchdown in the third quarter, but the Cowboys' overall struggles put them in a hole that eventually forced the offense to abandon the running game. Pollard had a productive regular season, gaining 1,005 rushing yards -- two short of his career high -- and six TDs on the ground while catching 55 of 67 targets for 311 receiving yards over 17 games, but it's unclear if he'll return as Dallas'…read more

Pollard carried the ball 17 times for 70 yards and a touchdown and caught both his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: The running back wrapped up the regular season with his best performance in over a month, as Pollard scored his first TD since Week 13 and reached 70 rushing yards for the first time since Week 12. He also collected his second straight season with 1,000 rushing yards, just nosing across the line with 1,005 before hitting the bench in favor of Rico Dowdle in the fourth quarter. Pollard will look to carry his momentum into the wild-card round next weekend when the Cowboys host the Packers.

Minimal production on 17 touches
Pollard rushed the ball 16 times for 49 yards in Saturday's 20-19 win over the Lions. He added one reception on three targets for zero yards.
Analysis: The good news is that Pollard dominated touches out of the Dallas backfield, handling 16 of the team's 21 rushing attempts. The bad news was his efficiency on those touches, as he managed only 3.1 yards per carry, with nine of his attempts going for fewer than three yards. Pollard now has been held out of the end zone and kept under 60 rushing yards in four consecutive contests.

Struggles despite improved health
Pollard rushed 12 times for 38 yards and caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 22-20 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Pollard admitted that he was still recovering from offseason surgery earlier in the season, and that he finally started feeling healthy in recent weeks. However, the results on the field have not fallen in line with the tailback's statements. Pollard's season-long struggles have resulted in a per-carry average more than a full yard below last year's breakout mark of 5.2. Things won't get any easier for Dallas' lead back with a matchup against the fourth-stingiest run defense on tap when the…read more

Finally feeling 100 percent
Pollard said Thursday that during the early portion of the season he was still working his way back from offseason surgery to address a leg fracture, but that "it's a night and day difference now," Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard said it wasn't until "halfway through the season, a little bit after the bye week" that he felt he was "starting to get into the groove of things." Heading into Dallas' bye in Week 7, Pollard had logged back-to-back games with under 30 rushing yards, while in eight appearances since he hasn't been held under 50 yards on the ground a single time (4.3 YPC in that span). He's also been targeted at least four times in five of his last six appearance, though it's somewhat concerning that the…read more

Slowed by Bills
Pollard rushed the ball 11 times for 52 yards in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills. He added two receptions on three targets for five yards.
Analysis: Pollard had his rushing volume limited by game script, as the Cowboys were down 21-3 by halftime. More concerning was his lack of opportunity as a pass catcher, as he failed to reach at least 15 receiving yards for the first time in four contests. Overall, Pollard managed his lowest yardage total since Week 10, though his effort came in the context of the entire Dallas offense severely underperforming expectations.

The starter ceded a short score on one of backup Rico Dowdle's 12 carries Sunday.

Analysis: The air attack took center stage in a game that somewhat unexpectedly turned into a back-and-forth aerial display, but Pollard put in a workman-like effort that included a six-yard run late in the third quarter to narrow a 28-20 deficit.

Pollard carried the ball 13 times for 79 yards and a touchdown and caught all six of his targets for 24 yards in Thursday's 45-10 rout of the Commanders.
Analysis: The running back was fairly quiet through the first half. but Pollard churned out a seven-yard TD run right before halftime and then began to pile up some yardage as the Cowboys put the game away. It's the first time in five games since Dallas' bye that the running back has topped 100 scrimmage yards, while the touchdown was his second in as many games and fourth of the year.

Breaks touchdown drought
Pollard rushed 12 times for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-10 win over the Panthers. He also caught four of five targets for 19 yards.
Analysis: Pollard's performance was highlighted by a 21-yard touchdown rush to begin the fourth quarter, his first touchdown since Week 1. With his rushing yardage also qualifying as his most since Week 3, Pollard took advantage of a favorable matchup Sunday. He'll strive to keep his positive momentum going in Thursday's game against the Commanders, who allowed 140 yards and two touchdowns to Giants tailback Saquon Barkley in Week 11.

Left out of offensive eruption
Pollard carried the ball 15 times for 55 yards in Sunday's 49-17 rout of the Giants.
Analysis: Seemingly every other Cowboys skill player got into the end zone Sunday, even No. 2 RB Rico Dowdle, but Pollard once again couldn't get anything going. The fifth-year back hasn't scored a touchdown since Dallas' opener, and his 55 rushing yards was actually his highest output in that category since Week 3. Pollard will try to break out of his slump Week 11 against a Panthers defense that ranked 28th in rushing yards allowed per game coming into Sunday.

Quiet again in Week 9 loss
Pollard carried the ball 12 times for 51 yards and caught three of five passes for 12 yards in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: The running back found some success against a tough Philly front seven in the second half and wound up averaging a respectable 4.3 yards per carry, but Pollard still found himself taking on a secondary role in the Dallas offense even in a competitive contest.

Left out of offensive outburst
Pollard rushed the ball 12 times for 53 yards in Sunday's 43-20 win over the Rams. He added one reception for two yards.
Analysis: The Cowboys scored four offensive touchdowns and racked up 387 total yards, yet Pollard contributed little to the showing. He was held to 13 total touches -- his second-lowest mark of the season -- and most concerning was his lack of involvement as a pass catcher. After tallying at least 70 rushing yards in each of his first three games, Sunday's effort marked his highest total in four contests since.

Excels as receiver Monday
Pollard rushed 15 times for 30 yards and secured six of seven targets for 80 yards in the Cowboys' 20-17 win over the Chargers on Monday.
Analysis: As his final line implies, Pollard was stonewalled on the ground, but he salvaged his fantasy night as a receiver with numbers that were all good for second on the Cowboys. The versatile back's receiving yardage total was also a season high and boosted by a 60-yard reception early in the fourth quarter on which he almost broke free for a touchdown. Pollard will aim to snap a three-game streak of sub-50-yard rushing performances when the Cowboys return from a Week 7 bye to tangle with the Rams…read more

Upgrades to full practice
Pollard (shoulder) was a full practice participant Friday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The quick return to full participation after one limited session suggests Pollard should be ready for his usual workload Monday night against the Chargers. Only two teams have allowed more fantasy points per game to RBs, and Pollard has dominated the Dallas backfield work in competitive situations this year.

Limited to begin Week 6 prep
Pollard was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a shoulder injury, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Pollard is making his first appearance of the season on the injury report, but unless the Cowboys reveal that he hurt his shoulder during Thursday's session, his limitations to begin Week 6 prep might have been maintenance-related. In any case, Pollard will have two more opportunities to upgrade to full activity in practice before the Cowboys decide whether to give him a designation heading into Monday's game against the Chargers.

Stymied in blowout loss
Pollard had eight carries for 29 yards and four receptions on five targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The Cowboys fell behind early and were forced into a one-dimensional game plan, resulting in a season-low eight carries for Pollard. Last week, the 26-year-old's touches were limited because the Cowboys were on the other side of a blowout game script, resulting in two pedestrian fantasy scores following a hot start to the season. Pollard will attempt to get back on track as a top fantasy option in a soft matchup against the Chargers next Monday.

Quiet in blowout win
Pollard rushed the ball 11 times for 47 yards in Sunday's 38-3 win over the Patriots. He added three receptions for 13 yards.
Analysis: Most of the Cowboys' top skill-position players had quiet days as the defense scored two of the team's four touchdowns while another came in garbage time with backups on the field. As a result, even given a fairly efficient effort, Pollard's volume and production were limited. Entering Sunday's game, Pollard had either scored multiple touchdowns or topped 100 total yards in all three games this season, so there's little reason for concern moving forward.

Big yardage in Week 3 loss
Pollard carried the ball 23 times for 122 yards in Sunday's 28-16 loss to the Cardinals. He also caught all three of his targets for minus-1 yard.
Analysis: The running back had his most productive game of the season on the ground, but it was backup Rico Dowdle who scored the Cowboys' only TD of the day. Pollard's numbers were even more impressive considering he was working behind an offensive line missing three starters, including Zack Martin (ankle). Pollard faces a tough test in Week 4 against a Patriots defense that just held Breece Hall and the Jets to 38 total rushing yards.

Tops 100 scrimmage yards
Pollard carried the ball 25 times for 72 yards and caught seven of eight targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets. He also ran in a two-point conversion.
Analysis: While he wasn't able to score a TD, something he did twice in Dallas' opener, it was still another very productive afternoon for the team's No. 1 running back. Pollard's workload, even in another blowout victory, is especially encouraging, but the Cowboys again face the prospect of not needing to keep their foot on the gas pedal in the second half during Week 3's road matchup against the 0-2 Cardinals, which could limit his fantasy ceiling.

Scores twice in blowout victory
Pollard rushed 14 times for 70 yards and two touchdowns while adding two receptions (on three targets) for 12 yards in Sunday's 40-0 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Pollard was the big producer on offense with two scores for a Dallas team that looked to be miles ahead of its opponent Sunday. The 2022 breakout star dominated the backfield touches as expected, only ceding touches to backups Deuce Vaughn (6-8-0) and Rico Dowdle (6-24-0) in garbage time of the blowout victory. Pollard will face a tougher challenge when Dallas takes on another opponent from New York next week, but the talented back will remain a strong play against the Jets on Sunday.

Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said Pollard is ready to be a No. 1 back and told reporters "there's nothing we will shy away from" when it comes to scheme, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas News reports.
Analysis: Pollard made a smooth recovery from January ankle surgery and seems to have had a normal training camp, giving the Cowboys confidence they can get by with only Rico Dowdle and Deuce Vaughn as backups Week 1 at the Giants. Pollard's new role will include some of the snaps Ezekiel Elliott took last year, including pass-blocking reps and at least a portion of the short-yardage carries, though the Cowboys might also use Dowdle or FB Hunter Luepke for some of that stuff to let the speedy Pollard…read more

Dallas coach Mike McCarthy is pleased with how Pollard (ankle) has looked in training camp so far, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports. "He's put his foot in the ground on a number of runs, and I definitely think he's back."
Analysis: The running back underwent a tightrope procedure in January to address the high-ankle sprain he suffered in the Cowboys' divisional-round loss to the 49ers, but Pollard's recovery has gone without a hitch and he remains on track to play Week 1 against the Giants. With Ezekiel Elliott no longer on the roster, Pollard is the unquestioned starter for an offense expected to be one of the more potent units in the league.

Pollard said Wednesday that the Cowboys' plan is for him to be eased into training camp, but he noted that he feels "pretty much at 100 percent," Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Pollard has been medically cleared for the start of camp, but the Cowboys will take a cautious approach to his initial practice workload. The standout back underwent surgery in January to address a broken fibula and high-ankle sprain, but the team seemingly doesn't have any concerns about his availability for Week 1.

Pollard (ankle) is medically cleared for the start of training camp, Patrick Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Analysis: The Cowboys were confident enough in Pollard's recovery to give him a $10.1 million franchise tag in early March, less than two months after he'd suffered a broken fibula and high-ankle sprain.

Analysis: The 26-year-old was participating in reduced-tempo OTA practices last week and appears to be progressing well in his recovery after he underwent tightrope surgery on a high-ankle sprain and broken fibula in his left leg back in January. According to Jon Machota of The Athletic, Pollard also said he's "not really limited at this point," and the tailback is poised to lead Dallas' backfield in 2023 following the release of Ezekiel Elliott, who remains a free agent.

Pollard (ankle) has been participating in reduced-tempo OTA practices, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard signed a franchise tag March 23, two months after having tightrope surgery on a high-ankle sprain in his left leg. He also broke the fibula, but it's still an easier rehab than something like an ACL or Achilles tear. While he may have some limitations as the offseason progresses and practices become more intense, Pollard is well on his way to starting Week 1 in a Dallas backfield without Ezekiel Elliott (still a free agent as of late May).

The pending free agent finished the 2022 season with 1,378 scrimmage yards and 12 touchdowns, and based on Machota's report, it sounds like Dallas is expected to retain the star running back, though it's unclear if that'll be through an extension or via the franchise tag.

Pollard (ankle) carried the ball 193 times for 1,007 yards and nine touchdowns and caught 39 of 55 targets for 371 yards and an additional three TDs though 16 games in 2022.
Analysis: The fourth-year running back put together a career-best campaign, setting new personal bests in rushing yards, receiving yards and TDs while averaging better than 5.0 yards per carry for the third time in his four NFL seasons.

Analysis: Pollard also sustained a broken left fibula Sunday, but Archer notes that the running back didn't need surgery to address that injury, which will be able to heal on its own. Pollard should be back to full strength well before training camp in late July, as his recovery from the ankle procedure is expected to last around 3-4 months.

Pollard suffered a fractured left fibula and a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's 19-12 loss to the 49ers in the divisional round and will require offseason surgery on the former injury, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Pollard was carted to the locker room late in the first half of the contest and didn't return, ending the day with six carries for 22 yards and two catches for 11 yards. A timeline for his recovery won't be established until after surgery is completed, the procedure typically entails a 3-to-4-month rehab process.

After spending some time in the medical tent, he was carted to the locker room with seconds remaining before halftime.

Analysis: Pollard was able to put together a solid performance, parlaying his touches into an efficient night that saw him lead the Cowboys' backfield in yardage by a wide margin. However, Ezekiel Elliott logged just two fewer carries, and both players project to play key roles in Sunday's divisional-round road matchup against an elite 49ers run defense.

Pollard carried the ball seven times for 19 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 26-6 loss to the Commanders.

Pollard finishes the regular season with a career-high 1,378 scrimmaging yards and 12 total TDs, and with Dak Prescott still struggling with interceptions, Dallas could lean heavily on their running game in the wild-card round against Tampa Bay.

Pollard rushed the ball 19 times for 75 yards in Sunday's 40-34 loss to the Jaguars. He added four receptions on five targets for 31 yards.
Analysis: Pollard paced the Dallas backfield in carries, total touches and yards.

Analysis: Pollard didn't flash his typical hyper-efficient ways -- at least in terms of big plays -- but he still found the end zone twice. His first score came on an 11-yard rush around right end early in the opening quarter. Next, he took a swing pass out of the backfield for a 10-yard receiving score to put the Cowboys up 14-10. The team continues to limit Pollard's touches in a shared backfield with Ezekiel Elliott, but the former has scored six touchdowns across his last four games.

The more-explosive of the duo finished with the finer performance this week, bumping his yards per carry average up to 5.8 in the process.

Pollard carried the ball 18 times for 60 yards and caught both his targets for only one yard in Thursday's 28-20 win over the Giants.
Analysis: For the first time since Week 6, Pollard saw Ezekiel Elliott gain more yards than him, but the duo were still both productive in the comeback victory. Pollard still saw his streak of games with 100-plus scrimmage yards end at four, but he remains a big-play threat every time he touches the ball. He'll look to bounce back in a Week 13 clash with the Colts.

Likely to be lead runner again
Pollard is expected to get the bigger share of the touches in the Cowboys backfield Sunday at Minnesota, even with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) returning from a two-game absence, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Pollard paced Dallas' ground game in place of Elliott during that span, racking up 40 touches for 275 yards from scrimmage and four rushing touchdowns. When Elliott was active for the first seven contests of the season, Pollard averaged a shade over 10 touches per game, but the team is slated to ease the former back into the lineup, meaning the latter is poised for another outing as the Cowboys' lead runner.

Thriving in lead role
Pollard rushed 22 times for 115 yards and a touchdown while catching three of six targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-28 overtime loss to Green Bay.
Analysis: Pollard served as the Cowboys' lead back in place of Ezekiel Elliott (knee) for the second week in a row, and he looked the part with another 100-plus yard rushing game. The 25-year-old wasn't able to replicate last week's three-score game, but he did make one trip to the end zone to bring his season total up to six. Elliott was listed as questionable for this game, so the veteran could return soon and cut into Pollard's recent surge in usage. Starting or not, Pollard presents enough upside as…read more

Serving as lead back again Sunday
Pollard will once again serve as the Cowboys' No. 1 running back in Sunday's Week 10 clash against the Packers with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) declared inactive for the contest, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Pollard parlayed such an opportunity into 131 yards and three touchdowns on 14 carries against the Bears in Week 8, and he'll have the added benefit Sunday of coming into his second straight assignment as the lead back rested off the Week 9 bye. The matchup against the Packers defense shapes up as about as appealing as that against Chicago, as Green Bay has surrendered an NFC-high 175.3 rushing yards per home game.

Likely to retain No. 1 role Week 10
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy suggested Pollard will likely remain the team's top running back Sunday against the Packers with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) listed as questionable but seemingly not expected to play, Ed Werder of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Though both team owner Jerry Jones and Pollard indicated earlier in the week that they anticipated Elliott returning from a one-game absence Sunday, the news pertaining to Elliott's status has become more negative in recent days. Even if Elliott is cleared to return from his hyperextended knee, he may have a smaller role than usual Sunday, which seemingly sets up Pollard to retain the high-volume role he enjoyed in a Week 8 win over the Bears. In that 49-29 victory, Pollard carried 14 times for…read more

Could share work with Elliott
Pollard could move back into a timeshare in the backfield for Sunday's game against the Packers with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) listed as questionable but seemingly on track to be available in some capacity, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: More clarification on Elliott's role might not be known until further reports trickle in over the weekend and when the Cowboys release their inactive list 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, but if he returns from a one-game absence, Pollard would likely see at least a slight role reduction. Before the Cowboys' Week 9 bye, Elliott's hyperextended right knee kept him out of action in a Week 8 game against the Bears, allowing Pollard to pick up the start. Though he was on the field…read more

Shines in absence of Elliott
Pollard rushed the ball 14 times for 131 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 49-29 win over the Bears. He added one reception for 16 yards.
Analysis: Pollard got the opportunity to serve as the Cowboys' lead back with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) sidelined, and he took full advantage. His three scores came from 18, seven and 54 yards, and he also added an explosive play as a pass catcher. While Pollard won't continue to see heavy usage as consistently once Elliott is able to return, he does have double-digit carries in three consecutive games. Even while sharing the backfield, Pollard has topped 80 rushing yards in four of eight contests on the…read more

Lead-back role awaits
Pollard is in line to handle a featured role out of the Dallas backfield in Sunday's game against Chicago with Ezekiel Elliott (knee/thigh) inactive for the contest, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Dallas moved up running backs Malik Davis and Qadree Ollison from the practice squad Saturday, but neither is a sure bet to poach a significant amount of snaps or touches from Pollard, who could be in store for one of the largest workloads of his career while Elliott sits out for the first time since Week 15 of the 2020 season. The Cowboys are on bye Week 9 before returning to action in Green Bay on Nov. 13, at which point Elliott may have made enough progress in his recovery from a Grade 2…read more

Likely starting with Zeke injured
Pollard is expected to start Sunday against the Bears in place of Ezekiel Elliott (knee), Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: The Cowboys are sending signals they plan to hold Elliott out until after their Week 9 bye, leaving practice-squad players Malik Davis and Qadree Ollison as the likely options behind Pollard, who had 132 total yards and two touchdowns the only other time Elliott missed a game the past four years (Week 15 of 2020). It's a good opportunity for Pollard to see much more than his usual 11.1 touches per game, with the Cowboys playing at home against a sub-.500 team on short rest.

Efficient with 14 touches
Pollard rushed 12 times for 83 yards and secured both targets for 26 yards in the Cowboys' 24-6 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: Pollard was three carries behind backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott, but he out-gained him by 26 yards. The fourth-year back's 6.9 yards per carry was especially impressive, and Pollard now has eclipsed the 80-yard mark on the ground in two of his last three games. His next opportunity to continue churning out strong numbers comes in a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the Bears' suspect run defense.

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.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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.

Pollard (illness) will travel with the team ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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 in a win against Washington on Sunday and caught one pass for two yards on three targets.
Analysis: 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.

Makes most of 13 carries
Pollard rushed the ball 13 times for 105 yards and failed to catch his only target in Monday's 23-16 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Pollard accounted for the Cowboys' longest play from scrimmage with a 46-yard run early in the second quarter. Though Ezekiel Elliott led the backfield with 16 total touches, Pollard picked up his highest number of carries in a game this season. After a quiet performance in Week 1, the Memphis product has recorded 203 scrimmage yards across his last two games.

Gets into end zone in win
Pollard carried the ball nine times for 43 yards and a touchdown and caught four of seven targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: The fourth-year back led Dallas in scrimmage yards on the day, with 48 of his yards coming on consecutive plays late in the first quarter that resulted in Pollard getting into the end zone and giving the Cowboys a 14-3 lead. He appeared to be a more explosive runner than Ezekiel Elliott, something that's been a common refrain the last two seasons, but both backs could be productive in Week 3 against a Giants defense that just got gashed for 128 scrimmage yards and a 6.8 YPC by Christian…read more

Fails to deliver on hype
Pollard rushed six times for eight yards and caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 19-3 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Pollard was bottled up by Tampa Bay's ferocious defensive front, as was nearly every offensive player for the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football. A trendy upside pick in draft circles this year, the explosive back fell flat and was outshined by the supposedly declining Ezekiel Elliott. For now, it appears to still be the veteran's show in Dallas, but Pollard will likely put together better performances than what we saw in Week 1. The Cowboys will be forced to rely on their rushing attack while…read more

Set for role in slot
Pollard is expected to see work in the slot this season in addition to his snaps out of the backfield, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.
Analysis: To this point in his NFL career, Pollard has been exclusively as a running back, but he mostly lined up as a wide receiver for Memphis prior to being taken in the fourth round of the 2019 draft. "There is a ton of it on film. A lot of it is coming back to him," Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said this week. "He's not going to run [just] the running back route tree, the quick game and just kind of the completion plays. He can stretch people vertically, and I think that will be a huge…read more

Might get real look as receiver
Pollard could be used as more than just a receiving option out of the backfield, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official website reports. "He's not going to run just the RB route tree. He can go vertically and put defenders in tough spots as to how they wanna cover him," offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said Wednesday.
Analysis: The fact that Moore suggested Pollard would be used "vertically" is a strong sign he'll be running something more than typical RB routes. Dallas' wide receiver depth will be tested early in the season with Michael Gallup (knee) and James Washington (foot) both sidelined, but signs continue to build that Pollard will be one of the players relied upon to take on some of those targets. The 25-year-old set career highs with 39 catches on 46 targets for 337 receiving yards last season, but he could…read more

Will remain No. 2 back
Pollard may see more snaps and touches in 2022, but Cowboys owner/GM Jerry Jones indicated Saturday they won't come at the expense of Ezekiel Elliott, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. "[Zeke] has to be the focal point," Jones said. "There is room for Pollard while Zeke is in there."
Analysis: The implication here is that Dallas will use more two-back sets, particularly on passing downs when Pollard can line up in the slot while Elliott handles pass protection duties. Based on their production over the last three seasons, there's an argument to be made that Pollard should be cutting into Elliott's workload, but the latter did play through a knee injury last year that may have hampered his efficiency, and he has one season remaining on his current contract before the Cowboys could…read more

Expects more snaps
Pollard has been taking snaps in the slot at training camp and says he anticipates more playing time this year, The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Dual-halfback formations tend to be more summer talking points than fall reality, but it makes sense for a Dallas team with shaky depth at wide receiver and tight end. The Cowboys traded Amari Cooper in the offseason and expect Michael Gallup (ACL) to miss time in September, leaving James Washington and rookie Jalen Tolbert among the favorites to pick up snaps. Given that context, formations with both Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott on the field sound better, especially compared to last season when…read more

Ready for versatile role
Pollard is getting ready to handle snaps in whatever role the Cowboys want him to fill, Coral Smith of NFL.com reports. "I'm open to anything just being on the field, being able to make the most of my opportunities," Pollard said after last month's OTAs. "If I have to line up in the slot a little more, whatever it takes, I'm ready to do it."
Analysis: The 25-year-old produced a career-high 1,545 all-purpose yards last season as a runner, pass catcher and kickoff returner, but Pollard is preparing to take on even more responsibility as a receiver in 2022. "It just makes things a little easier, being out wide, catching the ball, not having to worry about the first line of defense, then the linebackers, then the safeties. Once you're out wide you really just have one guy to beat, and then it's off to the races from there," Pollard said. "I…read more

Six touches in wild-card loss
Pollard carried the ball four times for 14 yards and caught both his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the 49ers in the wild-card round.
Analysis: The running back didn't see much action on offense, and Pollard's biggest contribution came on kickoffs, as he gained 50 yards on two returns. The third-year Memphis product put together his best season yet in the NFL, racking up 1,056 scrimmage yards and two rushing touchdowns over 15 games while working behind Ezekiel Elliott in the Dallas backfield. Pollard's 5.5 yards per carry put Elliott's 4.2 mark to shame, but with the starter still carrying a dead cap hit of over $30 million on his…read more

Coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that he thinks Pollard (foot) will practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: The Cowboys left Pollard behind in Dallas for a Week 18 visit to Philadelphia, a decision that McCarthy described as the team "just being smart with him." With the Eagles sitting key members on both sides of the ball this past Saturday, the Dallas offense had no problem putting up yards and points on its way to a 51-26 victory.

Downgraded to out
Pollard (foot) will not play Saturday against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Pollard was downgraded from 'questionable' to 'out' and won't travel with his teammates to Philadelphia. This isn't necessarily indicative of a setback, with the Cowboys perhaps just being cautious given that there isn't a ton on the line this weekend but will be shortly thereafter. Pollard's absence leaves Corey Clement to handle backfield snaps behind Ezekiel Elliott, who won't necessarily take on his usual workload (the Cowboys haven't commented on expectations there).

Pollard has delivered at least 50 yards from scrimmage in seven straight games, catching multiple passes in each one, but he's only found the end zone once during that stretch.

Pollard rushed eight times for 34 yards and caught two of three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 56-14 win over Washington.
Analysis: Pollard split touches with Ezekiel Elliott as expected, but neither player registered double-digit carries after Dallas practically locked up the victory at halftime. The latter was the beneficiary of two trips to the end zone, giving Elliott the superior fantasy game. The good news for Pollard's fantasy managers was that the touches remained fairly even, keeping the home-run hitting tailback in startable range heading into an important matchup against the Cardinals next Sunday.

Pollard (foot) rushed 12 times for 74 yards and brought in all three targets for 13 yards in the Cowboys' 21-6 win over the Giants on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Analysis: The talk coming in was that the Cowboys would manage Pollard's workload carefully in his return from a one-game absence, but the 24-year-old's 15 touches were actually his fourth-highest tally of the season. Pollard looked explosive and unencumbered by the previously troublesome foot while accruing a team-high amount of rushing yards.

The second-year back revealed that he tore the plantar fascia in his left foot during the Cowboys' Week 13 win over the Saints, but the team is hopeful that by holding Pollard out of Sunday's contest, he'll be healthy enough to return to the lineup as soon as Week 15 against the Giants. With Pollard out of the mix for Week 14, the…read more

On track to sit Sunday
Pollard (foot), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Washington, isn't expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Official confirmation of Pollard's status will arrive when Dallas releases its inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. With Pollard not expected to suit up, starter Ezekiel Elliott could take on a larger portion of the backfield duties after previously operating as the lead option in a timeshare arrangement with Pollard in recent weeks. Corey Clement is a candidate to mix in for reps behind Elliott, though Clement is unlikely to see as larger of a role as…read more

Game-day call for Week 14
Pollard (foot), who is listed a questionable for Sunday's contest against Washington, is viewed as a game-time call, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rapoport notes that Pollard, who didn't practice this past week after tearing the plantar fascia of his left foot in Dallas' Week 13 win over the Saints, has a chance to play, but added "there isn't a lot of optimism for it." A final decision on the running back's Week 14 status will thus arrive approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, when the Cowboys release their inactive list.

Questionable for Sunday
Pollard (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Washington, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Pollard missed practice Wednesday through Friday, after tearing the plantar fascia of his left foot in last Thursday's win over the Saints. Both Pollard and coach Mike McCarthy have suggested the running back will be a game-time decision ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, with Corey Clement likely in line to handle the No. 2 RB role if Pollard is inactive. The Cowboys may also consider other options, including reducing Pollard's workload on special teams (he returns kicks) but not offense.…read more

Could be headed for game-time call
Pollard believes he'll be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest in Washington after tearing the plantar fascia of his left foot in the Cowboys' Week 13 win over the Saints, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard wasn't known to be dealing with an injury until he was listed on a non-participant Wednesday on the Cowboys' initial Week 14 practice report. More information about his injury was provided Thursday, with head coach Mike McCarthy telling Gehlken that Pollard sprained his foot on a 58-yard touchdown run against New Orleans. Pollard confirmed he was hurt on the same play, though he classified the foot injury differently than McCarthy and was non-committal about suiting up Sunday. Gehlken…read more

Doesn't practice due to foot issue
Pollard didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot injury, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Analysis: At the media-access portion of the session, Pollard was contained to working with the team's training staff, while Ezekiel Elliott (knee) rode a stationary bike, according to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News. While that was the extent of Pollard's activity, Elliott was considered a full participant.

Dealing with injury
Pollard took part in resistance work off to the side with the Cowboys' training staff during the open portion of Wednesday's practice, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Pollard appears to be dealing with an injury of unknown nature, while Ezekiel Elliott (knee) also rode a stationary bike before joining his teammates for practice. The Cowboys signed Ito Smith to the practice squad earlier Wednesday, likely as an insurance policy due to the top two backs on the depth chart being banged up. Pollard's activity level will become known upon the release of the team's first Week 14 practice report later Wednesday.

Rips off long TD run
Pollard rushed seven times for 71 yards and a touchdown and brought in two of four targets for three yards in the Cowboys' 27-17 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Analysis: Pollard's 58-yard rushing touchdown late in the third quarter gave the Cowboys some valuable breathing room after the Saints had closed to within 13-10 earlier in the period. The third-year back also crossed the goal line on a 100-yard kickoff return on Thanksgiving against the Raiders, making Thursday's score his third touchdown overall this season.

Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 36 yards, caught all four of his targets for 32 yards, and returned three kickoffs for 129 yards including a 100-yard touchdown in a 36-33 overtime loss to the Raiders on Thanksgiving.
Analysis: With Ezekiel Elliott's knee clearly bothering him, Pollard wound up leading the Cowboys in carries and rushing yards in a nearly even workload split with Zeke. Pollard also just missed scoring a TD in the second quarter on a swing pass from Dak Prescott, but he was ruled down just short of the goal line and had to watch from the sidelines as Elliott punched the ball into the end zone on the next play. Not to be deterred, Pollard returned a kickoff to the house in the third quarter to spur a…read more

Leading rusher in loss
Pollard carried the ball seven times for 50 yards and caught both his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 19-9 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: He wound up leading the Cowboys in rushing yards and scrimmage yards on the day, seeing extra touches after Ezekiel Elliott briefly left the game due to a knee injury. With a short week before facing the Raiders on Thanksgiving, Pollard could be in line for a bigger workload Thursday, even if Elliott is able to suit up.

Just shy of 100 scrimmage yards
Pollard rushed 11 times for 42 yards and caught six of seven targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 43-3 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Pollard actually mustered one more rushing yard than Ezekiel Elliott on three fewer carries, but Elliott scored a pair of short touchdowns, while Pollard still hasn't found the end zone since Week 2. This was the best pass-catching performance of the season for Pollard, both in terms of receptions and yardage, but his ceiling remains capped by his change-of-pace role and lack of red-zone usage heading into a Week 11 road matchup with the Chiefs.

Little work in rough loss
Pollard carried the ball four times for 11 yards and caught one of two targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Ezekiel Elliott was in and out of the lineup throughout the game due to a knee contusion, but with the Cowboys offense as a whole generally unable to get anything going, Pollard didn't get much of a chance to take advantage. He's now been held below 10 touches and 50 yards from scrimmage in both of the last two games, but if Elliott's injury proves to be serious, Pollard could see a big jump in his workload Week 10 against the Falcons.

Quiet against Vikings
Pollard carried the ball seven times for 26 yards and caught his only target for one yard in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: The Cowboys' rushing game couldn't get a whole lot going with Cooper Rush under center instead of Dak Prescott (calf), but Minnesota stacking the box allowed the backup QB to throw for 325 yards. Pollard's eight touches was his smallest workload since Week 1, but with Prescott expected back Week 9 against the Broncos, the running back is likely to see double-digit touches once again.

Solid numbers in Sunday's win
Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 41 yards and caught all three of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's overtime win over the Patriots.
Analysis: He saw half the workload of Ezekiel Elliott, who wound up with 119 yards from scrimmage on 24 touches, but Pollard still posted solid numbers in his secondary role. The third-year running back has reached 60 total yards in five straight games heading into the Cowboys' Week 7 bye, giving him a stable fantasy floor despite the fact he's only found the end zone once so far in 2021.

Efficient with touches Sunday
Pollard rushed 14 times for 75 yards and brought in all four of his targets for 28 yards in the Cowboys' 44-20 win over the Giants on Sunday. He also committed a fumble, but it was recovered by Dallas.
Analysis: Pollard was the ideal complement to Ezekiel Elliott's own impressive rushing exploits Sunday, averaging 5.4 yards per carry and playing a solid role in the passing game as well. Elliott has reacquired a hefty, lead-back-worthy role over the last two games with 41 carries during that span, but Pollard's efficiency continues to be something to behold on a weekly basis. The 24-year-old's overall fantasy value will continue to be capped to an extent as long as Elliott is healthy, but Pollard will…read more

Another solid effort
Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 67 yards in Sunday's win over the Panthers.
Analysis: While he didn't receive a target, Pollard still posted strong numbers behind Ezekiel Elliott and saw double-digit touches while topping 60 yards from scrimmage for the third straight week. The Cowboys' increased emphasis on the running game is turning Pollard into a fairly reliable fantasy asset even in a backup role, giving him some appeal Week 5 against a Giants defense that hasn't been able to contain the likes of Alvin Kamara, Melvin Gordon or J.D. McKissic this year.

Away from team for personal reasons
Pollard was absent from Thursday's practice for personal reasons, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, Pollard wasn't present for drills Thursday, but there was no concern regarding his availability for Week 4 at the time of the report. Indeed, Pollard's absence isn't injury-related, so even if he remains away from the Cowboys on Friday, he appears to be OK as the team continues to prepare for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Pollard rushed 11 times for 60 yards in Monday night's 41-21 win over the Eagles. He also caught his lone target for five yards.
Analysis: Pollard, fresh off a 140-yard outburst in Week 2, was a nice complement to starter Ezekiel Elliott in the first half, when the Cowboys' offense line dominated up front. Although Elliott had two rushing touchdowns by halftime, Pollard still ran 10 times for 56 yards. Despite that production and a comfortable lead, however, he wasn't used much in the second half, capping his overall output.

Erupts for 140 yards in win
Pollard carried the ball 13 times for 109 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: After the Cowboys' running game got bottled up by the Bucs in Week 1, offensive coordinator Kellen Moore made a point of getting his ground game going in this one. While Ezekiel Elliott led the team with 16 carries, it was Pollard who led in rushing yards, and he scored his first TD of the season on a four-yard plunge midway through the first quarter. Zeke remains the unquestioned starter, but if Pollard continues to capitalize on his opportunities, double-digit touches could become the norm…read more

Pollard carried the ball three times for 14 yards and caught all four of his targets for 29 yards in a Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy stated in the offseason that the Cowboys would look to reduce Ezekiel Elliott's workload early in the year, and while that came to pass in the team's opener, it didn't result in a big increase in touches for Pollard. Facing one of the toughest front sevens in the NFL likely also played a role in Dallas not utilizing its backfield very much.

Looks good Saturday
Pollard rushed for 20 yards on five carries while catching both his targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Getting the start once again as Ezekiel Elliott gets saved for the regular season, Pollard scored the Cowboys' first TD of the game late in the first quarter on an eight-yard screen pass from Cooper Rush. The third-year running back saw 129 touches last season as the No. 2 option in the backfield, but Pollard could see that number increase in 2021 even if Elliott stays healthy, as the coaching staff seems intent on reducing Zeke's workload.

Pollard should once again be set for a solid complementary role behind Elliott, one that could even include a boost in the 101 carries Pollard logged in 2020 with Elliott playing in 15 games.

Getting work at wide receiver
Pollard has been getting some work at wide receiver according to coach Mike McCarthy, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Pollard has shown flashes when given the opportunity, but it's hard to get steady backfield reps behind a bell cow like Ezekiel Elliott. It makes sense to give Pollard some reps at receiver to try to increase his potential snaps, while not sacrificing Elliott's. We'll wait and see how this evolves going into training camp, but it's something to keep and eye on and a context that could provide Pollard with a additional fantasy utility.

Wraps up inconsistent campaign
Pollard gained 15 rushing yards on five carries and caught three of five targets for 18 yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants.
Analysis: The second-year back put together a 2020 season much like his rookie campaign, as he showed occasional flashes of his upside -- highlighted by his 132 yards from scrimmage and two TDs in Week 15 -- but he mostly saw limited work behind Ezekiel Elliott. Pollard finished the season with 627 total yards (a slight improvement on 2019) and five total touchdowns. With Elliott still under contract and carrying a sizable cap hit, the backfield depth chart isn't likely to change much in Dallas in 2021,…read more

Does little in Sunday's rout
Pollard carried the ball nine times for 12 yards and caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's win over the Eagles.
Analysis: After his 132-yard, two-TD effort Week 15, Pollard seemed poised to take on a bigger role in the Cowboys backfield, even with Ezekiel Elliott returning to action. Instead, the second-year RB faded back into the woodwork. Pollard likely will see a similar workload again Week 17 against the Giants, and while he's shown his upside he'll be a risky fantasy option.

Likely back to No. 2 role
Pollard is expected to serve as the Cowboys' No. 2 running back Sunday against the Eagles with Ezekiel Elliott (calf) set to play after sitting out the Week 15 win over the 49ers, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: While Elliott sat out the Week 15 contest, Pollard thrived in his first career start, carrying 12 times for 69 yards and two touchdowns and hauling in six of nine targets for 63 yards. Though Elliott -- who is listed as questionable for the contest -- has averaged a career-worst 3.9 yards per carry this season and presumably isn't 100 percent while he works back from the bruised calf, the massive six-year, $90 million contract extension he signed last week should continue to give him the edge…read more

He scored a short rushing touchdown early on and was bottled up on the ground for the most part until he broke free for a 40-yard score in the fourth quarter.

Earns significant workload
Pollard carried the ball 11 times for 39 yards in Week 14 against the Bengals. He added two receptions for nine yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Pollard had a near even workload with workhorse Ezekiel Elliott. That didn't translate into much production until late in the game, however, when he found the end zone on a seven-yard pass from Andy Dalton. Elliot was nursing a calf injury leading up to the Week 14 matchup, which may have led to the reduced workload. His availability to practice leading up to the team's Week 15 showdown with the 49ers could hint at Pollard's future workload.

Analysis: While he failed to reach double-digit touches on offense for the third straight contest and the 10th time in 12 games this season, Pollard contributed as a return man, and his 66-yard runback to Baltimore's 28-yard line set up Dallas' first touchdown of the night. As long as Ezekiel Elliott is healthy, however, Pollard's role on offense will remain limited.

Little usage in Thanksgiving loss
Pollard carried the ball four times for 12 yards and caught both his targets for 10 yards in Thursday's loss to Washington.
Analysis: Despite another fumble from Ezekiel Elliott, Pollard didn't see much action in the Thanksgiving Day rout, continuing a trend from last week -- after getting at least eight touches in five straight games prior to the Cowboys' bye, Pollard has only 11 touches total in the last two contests. As long as Dallas has a shot at winning their division, Elliot's workload isn't likely to decline, leaving Pollard's usage dependent on game flow rather than his abilities.

Chance for increased role Sunday
Pollard could have an increased workload Sunday against the Steelers if Ezekiel Elliott (hamstring) has trouble in his pregame workout, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Elliott has been limited at practice all week, creating some question about his availability Sunday. Though the Cowboys still anticipate Elliott playing Week 9, he could see a reduction in his snap and touch counts while he manages the hamstring injury. If that's the case, Pollard would likely see his role in the Dallas offense grow. Pollard set season highs in rushing yards (40) and receiving yards (24) during last week's loss to the Eagles.

Pollard's 12 offensive touches on the night outpaced his previous season high of eight, but the uptick in involvement can largely be attributed to game script, as Dallas fell into a 28-3 hole by the midpoint of the third quarter.

Eight touches in Sunday's win
Pollard carried the ball six times for 30 yards and caught two of three targets for two yards in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Analysis: The eight touches were a season high for the Cowboys' No. 2 running back, although Pollard made little impact with them. The Dallas offense could look very different Week 6 with Dak Prescott (ankle) lost for the season, and if more emphasis is put on the ground game, Pollard could start to see 8-10 touches per game on a more consistent basis.

Pollard carried the ball three times for 16 yards and a touchdown and caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's loss to the Browns.
Analysis: The 32 scrimmage yards tied his season high, while the TD was his first of 2020. Ezekiel Elliott continues to see the bulk of the work in the Dallas backfield, but his recent difficulty holding onto the ball -- both in terms of dropped passes and fumbles -- could open the door for Pollard to get more touches going forward.

Pollard did not receive a carry and caught his only target for a five-yard loss in Sunday's 38-31 defeat at the hands of the Seahawks.
Analysis: Ezekiel Elliott did not have a good game, committing numerous drops, slipping in his own end zone for a safety, and averaging only 2.4 yards a carry, but even in those circumstances Pollard didn't get a chance to make an impact.

Coach Mike McCarthy said he won't discuss his usage of Pollard and Ezekiel Elliott in the backfield, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: It seems reporters were probing McCarthy about the possibility of Pollard taking on a larger role in his second pro season. It would be a reasonable plan, especially on passing downs, but there's no doubt Elliott will dominate the carries as long as he's healthy. Elliott mentioned that pass catching was his main focus this offseason, perhaps cognizant that he could be in danger of losing some of that work to Pollard.

Pollard finished the 2019 season with 86 carries for 455 yards and two touchdowns while catching 15 of 20 targets for 107 receiving yards and an additional score.
Analysis: He also chipped in 245 yards on kickoff returns for good measure. Ezekiel Elliott's preseason holdout created a small window this fall in which it looked like the 2019 fourth-round pick could be the Cowboys' No. 1 running back, and Pollard gave glimpses of what that might have looked like during two huge performances against the Dolphins in Week 3 and the Rams in Week 15. In fact, 51.4 percent of Pollard's rushing yards on the year came in those two games. With Elliott and his giant contract…read more

Loses crucial fumble
Pollard carried the ball twice for zero yards, returned two kicks for 41 yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Pollard's fumble during the third quarter ended a 10-play drive for the Cowboys, and he didn't touch the ball again on offense. The 22-year-old had 12 rushes for 131 yards and one touchdown Week 15, illustrating his volatility as a low-volume fantasy option.

Surprising eruption for Dallas
Pollard carried the ball 12 times for 131 yards and a touchdown and caught both his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 44-21 win over the Rams.
Analysis: With Dallas leading 28-7 at halftime, Pollard saw increased opportunities in the second half and made the most of them, breaking off a 44-yard TD scamper in the fourth quarter for the Cowboys' final points. The rookie RB topped the century mark for the second time this season, and both times he's done it while Ezekiel Elliott was also compiling triple-digit rushing yards (the other game being Week 3's win over Miami). Pollard remains a risky fantasy option due to his usual low touch volume, but…read more

Back to full participation
Pollard (ankle) practiced fully Thursday, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Analysis: Pollard opened the week with a cap on his reps, but his ability to handle every rep Thursday paves the way for him to return to action Sunday against the Rams following a one-game absence. Working behind Ezekiel Elliott, Pollard likely is in line for the four touches per game he received in the nine games prior to his Week 14 DNP.

Practices in limited fashion
Pollard (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard sat out the Week 14 loss to the Bears due to an ankle injury but appears to be trending in the right direction for Sunday's tilt against the Rams. The rookie fourth-round pick will have two more opportunities to increase his practice activity and avoid an injury tag entirely for Week 15. If he's indeed cleared to play this weekend, Pollard will reprise his usual backup role behind Ezekiel Elliott.

Likely to return Week 15
Coach Jason Garrett said Pollard (ankle) "should be able to play" in the Cowboys' next game Dec. 15 against the Rams, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: After failing to practice Tuesday and Wednesday due to an ankle issue, Pollard didn't suit up Thursday in Chicago, leaving the backfield solely in the hands of starter Ezekiel Elliott. It was notable that fullback Jamize Olawale didn't get a single carry and was targeted just once on his 11 offensive snaps, despite the potential opportunity at hand. If Pollard returns to action Week 15, he likely will be afforded his typical handful of touches.

Not available Thursday
Pollard (ankle) is listed as inactive Thursday at Chicago, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Analysis: Pollard ended Week 14 prep in a precarious position, being held out Tuesday and Wednesday due to an ankle injury. Despite the Cowboys not bolstering the backfield prior to kickoff, the team has opted to keep Pollard in street clothes. As a result, FB Jamize Olawale is the only back available to the offense aside from workhorse Ezekiel Elliott.

Status in question for Thursday
Pollard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game in Chicago, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard didn't make an appearance on the Cowboys' Week 14 injury report until Tuesday, capping it with back-to-back absences from practice. After Ezekiel Elliott, fullback Jamize Olawale is the only other backfield option on the Cowboys' 53-man roster, so the team would show its hand with Pollard if it makes an addition to the backfield before Thursday's kickoff.

Added to injury report
Pollard (ankle) didn't practice Tuesday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Pollard was added to the Cowboys' Week 14 injury report Tuesday, so his status for Thursday's game against the Bears will be worth monitoring. Pollard remains firmly behind Ezekiel Elliott on the Cowboys' running back depth chart, which limits his fantasy ceiling, but he does remain useful as an insurance policy in the event that Elliott suffers an injury down the stretch.

Can't do much in rain
Pollard carried the ball four times for 19 yards and caught three of four targets for nine yards in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: The weather was miserable in Foxborough, and while Pollard saw his highest touch volume since he got eight carries Week 7 against the Eagles, the rookie wasn't able to turn them into much yardage. With his role increasing, however, Pollard could have some big-play potential in Week 13's home tilt against the Bills.

Scores first receiving TD
Pollard carried the ball twice for 12 yards and caught all four of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Lions. He also added a two-point conversion.
Analysis: The rookie running back had his best game yet as a pass catcher and topped 50 scrimmage yards for the first time since his huge Week 3 performance against Miami. Pollard remains firmly behind Ezekiel Elliott on the depth chart, but if offensive coordinator Kellen Moore is committed to getting the dynamic back more touches, Pollard could have deep-league value down the stretch.

Barely involved in Sunday's loss
Pollard lost four yards on his only carry in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: The rookie RB saw only three snaps on offense, a somewhat surprising number given how little success Ezekiel Elliott was having. Since his huge performance against Miami in Week 3, Pollard hasn't topped 30 scrimmage yards in a game, and his only fantasy utility at this point is as Elliott's handcuff.

Involved early in win
Polland carried the ball three times for 21 yards and caught one of three targets for nine yards in Monday's win over the Giants.
Analysis: Surprisingly, the Cowboys' No. 2 RB saw some early red-zone touches rather than being used later in the game to give Ezekiel Elliott a breather, but after Pollard dropped a screen pass that could have resulted in a TD, he was mostly relegated to the bench once again. The rookie now has 230 rushing yards with an impressive 4.8 YPC and one TD on the year, while catching five of seven targets for 37 yards.
