Latest news

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott expected to return Week 10

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on RB Ezekiel Elliott playing vs. Packers next week: "Yes, I expect Zeke back against Green Bay."

Related Players: Tony Pollard

Fantasy Impact:

With the Cowboys on bye in Week 9, Elliott has extra time to heal his knee sprain. That's upsetting for Tony Pollard's fantasy managers after the stud running back earned 131 rushing yards and three touchdowns in his first start of the season last week. Elliott will no doubt return as the 1A option if he is indeed good to go next week.

Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliot not expected to play Week 8

With the Cowboys expected to be without Ezekiel Elliott on Sunday vs. the Bears, Tony Pollard is in line to see significant work in his fourth career start. Malik Davis, Qadree Ollison may both be brought up Saturday from the practice squad; the Cowboys have had three RBs active each game so far.

Fantasy Impact:

It's been a while since Tony Pollard's most recent official start (12/20/2020), but the 18 touches and 132 scrimmage yards he accrued would be a nice fantasy boost here in Week 8, 2022. He is currently ranked as a top-ten option against a Bears defense that ranks 26th in aFPA to the running back position.

Cowboys Beat: RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee) doesn't look good for this week

Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott has a sprained knee and it doesn't look good for Sunday.

Related players: Tony Pollard, Rico Dowdle, Malik Davis

Fantasy Impact:

Hill reported that Elliott was not out at practice doing rehab during the media portion today as expected. If Zeke can't go, look for Pollard to have an increased workload with Dowdle and Davis perhaps getting some snaps behind him.

Matthew Berry: Zeke could be RB value based on injury

Matthew Berry - ESPN

Mar 11, 2022 · 10:32 AM EST

In his NFL Scouting Combine story, ESPN's Matthew Berry talked about RB Ezekiel Elliott. "...the internal thought in Dallas is that Zeke is still a legit RB1 and that an improved offensive line this season (and Zeke being fully healthy) will help a lot. You'll still see a lot of Tony Pollard, of course, but the expectation is Elliott still gets a ton of work in 2022, including all the goal-line action. At least for this season, the "death of Zeke's value as a fantasy RB1 narrative" has been overblown. If his current ADP holds, he'll be a value in drafts come August."

Fantasy Impact:

Monitor best ball rankings/drafts early and see if the Cowboys add o-line depth once free agency starts.
