Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) was able to get in a limited practice on Thursday after being listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. In Tyjae Spears' return from injury in the Week 10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, Spears played 54% of the offensive snaps to Spears' 46% and handled 13 touches for 63 yards. Spears had 10 touches for 51 yards. The 27-year-old Pollard continues to deal with a foot injury but hasn't missed any time because of it. He had a season-high 28 carries for 128 yards in the overtime win over the Patriots on Nov. 3, but immediately after that game, the Titans coaching staff said they'd likely to reduce Pollard's workload moving forward. Pollard should play this Sunday against the Vikings, but Spears is going to take valuable touches away, setting him up as a low-end RB2/high-end RB3/flex for fantasy managers.
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed nine times for 44 yards, adding four receptions on four targets for 19 yards, in a defeat to Los Angeles on Sunday. It was a down performance for Pollard, who was semi-game scripted out of this one with the Titans playing from behind most of the game. Tyjae Spears actually bested Pollard in the rushing department for the first time all season on two fewer carries. The former Cowboy also appeared to tweak his ankle late in the first half but was able to come back in the game shortly after. Pollard will be susceptible to down games like this due to the nature of the Titans' incompetent offense, but he remains a featured player who will see around 15-20 opportunities per game, even with Spears back in the mix. Up next is an extremely tough matchup against the Vikings' top rush defense, which will likely demote Pollard to only a flex option, down from his usual RB2 spot.
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) will take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10 of the NFL season. The Titans RB1 missed some practice this week with a foot injury but was removed from the final report and is good to go against LA. He's been one of more reliable RB2s on the season, albeit with a capped ceiling, not having topped more than 18 half-PPR points yet this year. The matchups haven't dictated the outcome of Pollard's success for the most part, although he did gash the soft Patriots run-defense last week for a season-high 128 rushing yards after receiving 31 opportunities. Tyjae Spears (hamstring) will return this week after missing the past three games which will decrease the workload for Pollard, but he still remains a safe floor play against the Chargers stout rush defense. Expect another 10-15 point half-PPR outing for the former Cowboy.
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) was absent from Thursday's practice session. Pollard missed two practices last week, but still managed to play against the New England Patriots. He rushed for 128 yards during the overtime victory. Afterwards, head coach Brian Callahan said he plans to reduce Pollard's workload because they don't want him to get overworked. That being said, it's not shocking to see the Titans being light with Pollard in practice. He should be fine ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Although, fantasy managers should check back on Friday to see what Pollard does in practice. His fantasy value is likely to take a hit with the Titans limiting Pollard going forward.
Tennessee Titans running backs Tony Pollard (foot) and Tyjae Spears (hamstring) were both listed as limited participants in Tennessee's first practice ahead of Week 10. Pollard has dealt with a foot issue for some time but was productive again in last Sunday's 20-17 victory over the New England Patriots and has yet to miss any time this season. On the other hand, Spears is hoping to return from a three-game absence after battling a hamstring injury for the last few contests. Word came out earlier this week that the Titans are looking to reduce the veteran's workload. If Spears is again inactive, backfield mate Julius Chestnut could be on tap for an increased share of the backfield touches this coming Sunday when Tennessee squares off against the Los Angeles Chargers on the road at SoFi Stadium.
