Tony Pollard is now the main running back with the Dallas Cowboys following the departure of Ezekiel Elliott, especially after his breakout season in 2022. The Cowboys made the call to place the franchise tag on Pollard earlier this year, and Pollard decided to sign.
He is due $10.091 million this year; he and the Cowboys have until tomorrow to work out a long term deal. And based on the latest report, it does not look like that's going to be the case.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler had the following to say on Twitter:
"The #Cowboys and RB Tony Pollard, barring a late change, are not expected to reach a deal by Monday’s 4 p.m. franchise tag deadline, per sources.
Pollard - the No. 9 running back according to our execs/coaches/scouts poll - is due $10.1M on a tag he signed in March."
Last season, Pollard racked up 1,007 yards with nine touchdowns on 193 attempts while making $965,000 in what was the final year of his four year deal.
