Tony Pollard Looks Back To 100 Percent
3 years agoDallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) practiced in full all week for the first time since he tore his plantar fascia on Dec. 2, and he will play in Sunday's wild-card game against the San Francisco 49ers. Pollard was rested in the Week 18 regular season finale last Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles. "Tony looks great. I think definitely the time off helped him, too. …Tony looks like he's back to 100%," head coach Mike McCarthy said. In three games played since his foot injury, Pollard is averaging 5.09 yards per carry on 23 attempts and 9.75 yards per catch on eight receptions (11 targets). He's been more efficient than Ezekiel Elliott this year and should continue to mix and match with Zeke in Dallas' backfield. The matchup against the 49ers isn't the greatest, but Pollard isn't a bad RB2 or flex in DFS lineups for wild-card weekend.
