Tony Pollard News
Saturday, September 12, 5:35 AM
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has been a consistent and durable rusher in recent years, recording at least 1,000 rushing yards and 1,250 scrimmage yards in four consecutive seasons. Entering 2026, Pollard once again profiles as the lead back in Tennessee. He's scored just 10 touchdowns over his first 33 games with the Titans, but the team should field its best offense in recent memory in quarterback Cam Ward's second year as the starter. In Week 1, Pollard and the Titans will host the New York Jets. New York struggled to defend the run in 2025, allowing the fourth-most rushing yards (2,371) in the NFL. Given that neither team projects to have a particularly explosive passing game, Tennessee could choose to lean heavily on the run game and give Pollard plenty of work on Sunday. It's hard to bank on Pollard providing high-end production given the questions that remain in the Titans' overall offensive attack, but he profiles as a high-floor flex option for fantasy managers in Week 1.

Breece Hall News
Sunday, September 13, 1:17 PM
New York Jets running back Breece Hall tallied 22 carries, 102 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown during Sunday's Week 1 win over the Tennessee Titans. He also caught two passes for an additional 16 receiving yards. Fantasy managers have to be quite pleased with this season-opening performance from Hall. After finishing with modest numbers as the RB19 last year, the Jets' lead back kicked off the 2026 season by showing that he's capable of logging 20+ touches per game with great efficiency numbers. He also found the end zone, which is something he only accomplished five times in 16 games last year. The Titans were admittedly a softer matchup for Hall, and he'll get a tougher test in the form of the Green Bay Packers next week. Nevertheless, Hall is trending up as the Jets' clear workhorse back. He will climb to the low-end RB1 or high-end RB2 tier in fantasy football rankings next week.
