Tony Pollard

Tony Pollard has been running like a man possessed over the last three weeks as the RB9 in fantasy points per game, averaging 20.3 touches and 125 total yards per game. He isn't going to offer much in the passing game, though. During that span, he has only two targets, one reception, and eight receiving yards. He has rattled off three straight 100-yard rushing performances. Since Week 14, Pollard has been on fire with an 8.3% explosive run rate and a 17% missed tackle rate. Pollard should have success on the ground again this week. Since Week 12, New Orleans has allowed the 11th-most rushing yards per game while having the 12th-lowest stuff rate and sitting at 17th in yards before contact per attempt.

Tony Pollard rushed for 85 yards on 18 carries, adding 10 yards on two receptions in Sunday's loss to the Saints.

Fantasy Impact

Despite failing to rush for 100-plus yards in a fourth straight game, Pollard continued his late-season surge with another solid effort. The veteran RB has now crossed 1,000 yards rushing for the fourth consecutive season, with 452 of those yards coming over the last four games.
