Yahoo Fantasy Football on Tony Pollard

Texans' elite run defense makes Pollard a tough Week 4 start despite normal-matchup RB1/2 floor.

Pollard is a fringe RB1/2 in normal matchups, but this Week 4 matchup against the Texans is one of the worst possible. The Texans are the best fantasy RB defense through three weeks, averaging just 87 rushing yards per game to opposing RB rooms, with context that they've faced Jonathan Taylor, James Cook, and Chase Brown—none of whom scored a touchdown. The Cowboys still project for 23.0 points (17th), and while the Texans' linebacker injuries make them more vulnerable over the middle, the rushing defense remains elite.
