News: Schefter: Cowboys Have Placed Franchise Tag on RB Tony Pollard

[DuncanIso]

I don’t know why everybody is panicking about Pollards injury and future cap

Pollard underwent a "TightRope" procedure instead of a surgery that required screws into the tibia and fibula for a repair. In this procedure, a braided polyethylene cord, rather than a rigid surgical screw, is applied to restore the original position of the bones and to allow for proper healing.

Pollard should be at full strength well before training camp. Tua Tagovailoa underwent a similar surgery while at Alabama, and Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehillalso had the procedure recently. Pollard also suffered a fractured fibula but that will heal with time.

His foot was pointed backwards.

We saw the same thing with Dak.

We dont know how much speed he lost. 8(

That leg injury was terrible.

That injury did not even require surgery screws.
The fibula break was actually self healing.

The high ankle "sprain" was considered more minor procedure surgery than the fibula.

Y'all act like it's a ACL or an Achilles tendon tear,..or as mentioned like Prescott ankle break.

Tony’s foot was pointed backwards.

Daks was more to the side.

Totally apples and oranges

-Not like dak ankle..which bone was pertruding out of the skin.

-Dak desperately had to have multiple surgeries..screws and all.

- Pollard did not evan need screws and the
break will heal on its own.
I guess people will continue to exaggerate Pollard injury to their own agendas and means.

Doesn't matter if it was totally spunned around like a Looney Tunes cartoon ..

It wasn't a drastic break.
In fact the "sprain " was considered more serious than the fibula break.

Difference is dak pictures his foot is in that position without force and after the play. In pollards you are taking a snapshot of something still in motion.
