Cowboys RB Tony Pollard has been "privately tutored" on playing slot receiver by offensive quality control coach Kyle Valero this offseason. "Just details like route-running, getting in and out of breaks, why we re running certain plays and what s the meaning behind them, Pollard said. We re getting into the depth of why we re doing the things that we re doing, so it will make more sense in the big picture. It just shows the hard work that I ve put in. In the offseason, during the season, it s not going unnoticed. Guys are noticing the things that I can do with the ball to help the team, just knowing that I can contribute more and more to the team. Pollard ranked 3rd in yards per route run last year among 51 qualifying RBs, and the Cowboys are dangerously thin at WR to open the season. So we're buying some slot usage for Pollard. That'll give him a chance to be a fantasy starter even behind a healthy Ezekiel Elliott.
Will Ezekiel Elliott ever be a fantasy star again? Can Trey Lance deliver on the hype? Fred Zinkie explains why he's in or out on five of the most polarizing names in 2022 drafts.
The Cowboys have two very good running backs. And they apparently plan to get both of them on the field at the same time. They dabbled with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard playing together in the past, but it never became something that was sustained. This year, with Pollard adding the role of slot receiver, [more]
