This week's outlook

Pollard enters Week 5 healthy with no injury designation, but his recent output has been modest, topping out at 48 rush yards with limited receiving work. Facing Houston's defense, he'll need volume and a role in the passing game to justify his $5600 price. A clearer path to touches would make him more trustworthy as a starter.
