Scouting report

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Tony Pollard found the end zone again against Washington in Week 13, adding a touchdown to his 79 rushing yards and six receptions for 24 yards. He managed 19.3 Half-PPR points, a significant uptick on his seasonal average of 12.2, and finished as the RB9 for the week.

Pollard should be able to continue his recent good form against the Seahawks, who rank a mere 28th in aFPA to running backs this season. He may even be able to record 100 yards rushing for the first time since Week 3...maybe. Even so, he projects as a solid RB1 in Week 13.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs Washington Commanders

Tony Pollard found the end zone for the first time since Week 1 against the Panthers, but the score didn't really elevate his performance to anything above functional. He did finish as the RB12 with 16 Half PPR points, but Pollard has not been the guy fantasy managers hoped for all season. He's the RB24 in average points per game.

Maybe, MAYBE, he can build on his Week 11 form and produce again against the Commanders on Thanksgiving. The Commanders rank eighth in aFPA to running backs this season, but given how pass-happy the Cowboys have been lately Pollard will likely need another trip or two to the end zone to make his day worthwhile. Still, he should be viewed as a mid-tier RB1 this week.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Carolina Panthers

It continues to not happen for Tony Pollard, despite a plum Week 10 matchup. Pollard could only muster 5.5 Half-PPR points, a tally exceeded by 37 other backs last week. Pollard has averaged just 10.9 fantasy points per game this season and sits at RB27 in points per game.

The Panthers have positively bled fantasy production to running backs in 2023, and rank 31st in aFPA to the position. But Dallas embracing the passing game, not to mention Pollard's lack of elite production, make him tough to trust this week. He should be able to flirt with high-end RB2 numbers, but he's been under 10 points in five of his last six outings. Risky doesn't even come close.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. New York Giants

If not now, when? That is the question Tony Pollard managers are asking heading into Week 10. Pollard is the RB21 in fantasy points per game and was only the RB28 last week. The Eagles are a stiff out for any running back at present, but Pollard managers are probably past such mitigation.

The Giants represent a wonderful opportunity for Pollard to break out of his slump. They rank 23rd in aFPA to running backs this season. We should expect mid-range RB1 numbers this week. But if we do not get them, it may be time to seriously talk about Tony.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Philadelphia Eagles

Tony Pollard continues to underwhelm in fantasy, despite playing on a healthy number of snaps and seeing a good number of opportunities. In a game that quickly became a blowout against the Rams, Pollard was held to 53 yards on 12 rushing attempts, and caught his solitary target for two yards. His 53 yards on the ground were his most since Week 3, and he hasn’t scored a touchdown since the opening week of the season. Pollard had just six points in Half-PPR scoring against the Rams, and is averaging just 12.16 this season.

Things are not likely to get a lot easier for Pollard this week, with a matchup against the Eagles on the slate. No team has been less welcoming to fantasy running backs than the Eagles this year, as evidenced by their ranking first in aFPA to the position. You are certainly not dropping Pollard, but you shouldn’t expect a ceiling above a high-end RB2 this week.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Los Angeles Rams

Tony Pollard is certainly seeing a ton of work in 2023, averaging a robust 16 rushing attempts and 4.2 receptions per outing. He hasn't been bad in fantasy, although his fantasy managers were probably hoping for better than the RB15 in points per game.

Pollard doesn't have the easiest matchup in the world this week, with the Rams ranking ninth in aFPA to running backs. Still, his workload alone makes him a player just waiting to breakout, so you should treat him as a mid-level RB1 this week.

DAL RB Tony Pollard - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Los Angeles Chargers

Week 5 was another disappointing outing for Tony Pollard, as he saw just 12 touches for a combined 64 yards from scrimmage. His eight rushing attempts garnered just 29 yards, while he added another 35 on four receptions. Pollard managed 6.4 Half-PPR points and has 13.9 combined in his last two. He's the RB18 in fantasy points per game this season.

Pollard should see something approaching his normal complement of touches against the Chargers in Week 6, and if he does it's not a matchup to scare Pollard managers too much. The Chargers rank 19th in aFPA to running backs this season. Pollard should be viewed as a solid RB1 option this week.
