The Cowboys offense will need a new element to it this season if they want to avoid opposing defenses knowing their tendencies creating another in-season slump. Luckily, they have a player that can give them this versatility at running back.
It’s not starter Ezekiel Elliott entering year seven, but rather Tony Pollard in the final year of his rookie contract. The Cowboys used Pollard as a receiver and running back in OTAs, with the talk around their offense using a more mobile Dak Prescott and a reported promised role for Pollard to do more in Kellen Moore’s scheme.
