Ezekiel Elliott Headshot

Cowboys RBs Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard both delivered for fantasy football teams in Sunday's win over the Lions. Elliott picked up 57 yards and scored twice among 15 carries. Pollard rushed 12 times for 83 yards and caught 2 passes for 26 more, giving him 109 total yards for the game. The 14 touches were a season high for Pollard. According to Pro Football Focus, he ran 4 more routes than Elliott for the game, marking the 1st time this season that Pollard has led in that category. We'll see whether that becomes a trend (as it probably should). Dallas gets positive RB matchups with the Bears and Packers the next 2 games, sandwiching a Week 9 bye.
