Love your stuff Jess ... legitimately one of the better contributors to these sites.

But I would caution against buying into any of the hype about Pollard's role increasing. This is an old song at this time of year, and you won't be seeing him used as a receiver. Just maybe the 1st three weeks of the season you may see him motioned out and catch a flare or two, just for the sake of making it look like a concept, but history suggests Pollard's role is well-defined and won't change one iota.

IMO, there is but a single scenario that lands Pollard on the 2023 roster, and that is essentially Zeke being removed from it. Pollard may go down as one of the biggest waste of talents in team history (like a Marcellus Bennett). Why on earth would Pollard re-sign here unless he's all but given the lead role?
