Solid numbers in Sunday's win Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 41 yards and caught all three of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's overtime win over the Patriots.

Impact He saw half the workload of Ezekiel Elliott, who wound up with 119 scrimmage yards on 24 touches, but Pollard still posted solid numbers in his secondary role. The third-year running back has reached 60 scrimmage yards in five straight games heading into the Cowboys' Week 7 bye, giving him a stable fantasy floor despite the fact he's only found the end zone once so far in 2021.

Impact Pollard was the ideal complement to Ezekiel Elliott's own impressive rushing exploits Sunday, averaging 5.4 yards per carry and playing a solid role in the passing game as well. Elliott has reacquired a hefty, lead-back-worthy role over the last two games with 41 carries during that span, but Pollard's efficiency continues to be something to behold on a weekly basis. The 24-year-old's overall fantasy value will continue to be capped to an extent as long as Elliott is healthy, but Pollard will look to keep drawing solid volume in a Week 6 showdown against the Patriots.

Another solid effort Pollard carried the ball 10 times for 67 yards in Sunday's win over the Panthers.

Impact While he didn't receive a target, Pollard still posted strong numbers behind Ezekiel Elliott and saw double-digit touches while topping 60 scrimmage yards for the third straight week. The Cowboys' increased emphasis on the running game is turning Pollard into a fairly reliable fantasy asset even in a backup role, giving him some appeal in Week 5 against a Giants defense that hasn't been able to contain the likes of Alvin Kamara, Melvin Gordon or J.D. McKissic this year.

Away from team for personal reasons Pollard was absent from Thursday's practice for personal reasons, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, Pollard wasn't present for drills Thursday, but there was no concern regarding his availability for Week 4 at the time of the report. Indeed, Pollard's absence isn't injury-related, so even if he remains away from the Cowboys on Friday, he appears to be OK as the team continues to prepare for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Logs DNP on Thursday Pollard (undisclosed) didn't practice Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Per the report, a source close to Pollard downplayed the running back's absence, suggesting that "he's good." That notion would be confirmed in the event that Pollard practices in any capacity Friday when the Cowboys get in their final session prior to Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys stake claim as contenders with big win over Eagles

Gets 12 touches Pollard rushed 11 times for 60 yards in Monday night's 41-21 win over the Eagles. He also caught his lone target for five yards.

Impact Pollard, fresh off a 140-yard outburst in Week 2, was a nice complement to starter Ezekiel Elliott in the first half, when the Cowboys' offense line dominated up front. Although Elliott had two rushing touchdowns by halftime, Pollard still ran 10 times for 56 yards. Despite that production and a comfortable lead, however, Pollard wasn't used much in the second half, capping his overall output. While Elliott's star presence should usually limit Pollard's upside, he's proven to be a valued contributor to Dallas' offense the past couple games, giving him decent utility ahead of Week 4's matchup versus the Panthers.
