FRISCO, Texas -- Running back Tony Pollard underwent surgery Tuesday on a broken left fibula and high ankle sprain he suffered in the Dallas Cowboys' divisional round playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers, according to a source.
Pollard suffered the injury with 1:24 left in the first half when 49ers defensive back Jimmie Ward landed on his ankle while making the tackle. Pollard was carted to the X-ray room with an air cast on his leg. The Cowboys had only 21 yards rushing in the second half without Pollard.
