Who Should I Start? Tony Pollard or Devon Achane

Friday, December 20, 4:10 PM

According to Jim Wyatt of the Titans, running back Tony Pollard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. Pollard was unable to participate in practice all week but the team is leaving the door open for him. However, fantasy managers should begin to find an alternative option as he will likely face an uphill battle to suit up. Pollard has battled a lingering ankle injury over the past few weeks and was even forced out of last weekend's game due to it. If Pollard is unable to suit up, Tyjae Spears would step into the lead role. If Pollard is eventually ruled out, Spears would become a viable RB2 in all formats in a favorable matchup as the Colts have allowed the sixth-most PPR points to opposing running backs this season.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane heads into Week 16 with five top 15 running back finishes in a row despite only averaging 36.8 rushing yards per contest. His receiving output and his knack for getting in the endzone have kept him a top-10 fantasy running back. He remains 34 receiving yards behind Alvin Kamara for the league lead by running backs. This week, he gets a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who struggle at allowing fantasy points to running backs. They rank 21st in fantasy points and 30th in rushing touchdowns allowed per game. The 23-year-old should look to see plenty of targets with the injuries Miami is dealing with at the receiver position this week. He is a must-start top 10 play and is the RB8 in the RotoBaller weekly rankings.
