UNBELIEVABLE: Cowboys place franchise tag on rb tony pollard per source - Caught on Camera

The Cowboys have placed the franchise tag on running back Tony Pollard ahead of the Tuesday deadline, SI’s Albert Breer reports. Pollard will earn $10.1 million on a one-year deal in 2023.

The Dallas tailback is coming off a career year last season, recording a team-high 1,007 rushing yards, plus 371 receiving yards and 12 total touchdowns.
