FRISCO, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys showed they want to ease the load on two-time NFL rushing champion Ezekiel Elliott by drafting Tony Pollard in the fourth round and Mike Weber in the seventh last month. Pollard is also a threat as a receiver and kick returner, but the former Memphis player believes he can be a traditional back behind Elliott. Weber was Elliott's teammate at Ohio State in 2015 when he took a redshirt year.
