Cowboys running back Tony Pollard has been an excellent complement to Ezekiel Elliott over the last few seasons. Entering Sunday's NFC East game against the Washington Football Team, neither may be at 100% health.
Elliott has been nursing a knee injury over the last few weeks. He was limited to just 45 yards on 13 carries in the 27–17 victory over the Saints on Dec. 2, Dallas's last game.
Pollard was the more explosive player that night, with 71 yards and a score on just seven carries. 58 of his yards came on his long touchdown run.
