Memphis’ Tony Pollard added to Senior Bowl Roster

6 days.

That’s all it took for Memphis RB/WR/KR Tony Pollard to get the ball rolling on his NFL hopes. Senior Bowl Executive Director, Jim Nagy, announced (via Twitter) this morning that they would be adding Pollard to the North roster.

Last Friday, Pollard announced that he would declare for the 2019 NFL Draft.

The news came rather unexpected to a lot of people, given that Pollard, a redshirt junior, is going to forfeit his final year of eligibility. From the outside looking in, it seemed as if he was going to be in a much larger role within the Memphis offense, given that RB Darrell Henderson had declared for the draft.
