Who Should I Start? Miles Sanders or Tony Pollard

Friday, October 10, 5:02 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Miles Sanders (ankle, knee) has been moved to season-ending injured reserve, according to Patrick Walker of the Dallas Cowboys. Sanders was limited in practice on Wednesday before missing Thursday's practice, but now his season is over as he deals with multiple injuries to his ankle and knee. The 28-year-old served as the primary backup running back to Javonte Williams over the first four games of the season before missing Week 5. Rookie Jaydon Blue was active in his place and should step into a larger role now with Sanders out. Blue shouldn't be in lineups for Week 6, but he is an interesting speculative pickup ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard had 10 carries for 22 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Pollard also had three catches for four yards on three targets. The 28-year-old veteran scored a season low of 5.6 fantasy points and was out-snapped for the third time this season by backfield mate Tyjae Spears. Since Week 6, Pollard has only been able to eclipse over eight fantasy points once. The former explosive fantasy favorite has become a low-upside, touchdown-dependent flex option for managers. Pollard was been unable to find paydirt for a fifth straight week and has only been able to find the end zone twice this year. Heading into Week 12, Pollard will be a desperation flex option in deeper leagues in a difficult matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
