Tony Pollard News
Monday, August 17, 12:42 PM
Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) missed practice again Monday, his second straight absence after sitting out Saturday. Head coach Robert Saleh said over the weekend that Pollard was dealing with a sore foot and hoped to have him back Monday, but Pollard remained sidelined. He had played Thursday against San Francisco, running four times for 22 yards and scoring from five yards out on Tennessee's opening drive. Pollard started all 17 games last season and ran for a career-high 1,082 yards on 242 carries. Tennessee was thin at running back Monday, too, with Nick Singleton and Kalel Mullings also out. Pollard is still listed ahead of Tyjae Spears on the Titans' unofficial depth chart, and Saleh described the recent injuries as minor aches and bruises. There isn't much reason for fantasy managers to move Pollard down yet. If he's still out later in the week, though, the foot becomes a little harder to shrug off.

Cam Skattebo News
Saturday, August 15, 4:39 PM
New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo carried the ball four times for 19 yards and went without a target in the team's 13-10 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Skattebo saw his first game action since suffering a compound fracture of his right leg in Week 8 of the 2025 season. Despite the quick turnaround to the 2026 season, the second-year back looked strong, breaking multiple tackles less than a year after the gruesome injury. However, a split was evident among running backs Tyrone Tracy Jr., Devin Singletary, and Skattebo. On the first two first-team drives, Tracy played seven of 16 plays, Skattebo played five, and Singletary played four. Skattebo also did not play in obvious passing-down situations, with Tracy handling most of the third-down work on Saturday. While the team is likely easing Skattebo back into football shape after a significant injury, fantasy managers should temper expectations, especially in the receiving game and early in the season.
