NFL teams love to squeeze easy, low-risk yards by throwing to their running backs.We certainly get that with Pollard. But check this out:

Zeke has averaged about 300 yards per year in receiving yards over his career. But what!? Just 92 receiving yards in 2022!

And Elliott's yards per catch history:
2016: 11.3
2017: 10.3
2018: 7.4
2019: 7.8
2020: 6.5
2021: 6.1
2022: 5.4
