Olonilua

It is notable in the context of Ezekiel Elliott being a game-time decision for Week 9 with a hamstring injury. Olonilua’s promotion is certainly a sign that Zeke might be on the wrong side of questionable. Even if that happens, Olonilua will not be fantasy consideration behind plug-and-play RB2 Tony Pollard. A part-time player in four seasons at TCU, Olonilua (6'3"/232) disappointed at Indy’s combine with a 4.66 40 but reportedly clocked a 4.47 during a pro workout in April. That’s a terrifying notion given his size and strength combination as the 22-year-old also squats 770 pounds, benches 470, and cleans 475. His career yards per carry dipped in every season (8.1, 5.2, 4.7, 4.0) with the Horned Frogs, but note he was primarily used either from the slot or on short-yardage sub-packages in his last two years.

Turn on the 2018 Cheez-It Bowl (32/192/1, Offensive MVP) for a truly defining performance. Olonilua faces an uphill battle in the league but his 82nd-percentile SPARQ athleticism and uniqueness among Dallas’ roster give him a fighting chance to survive final cuts.
