Tony Pollard News
Saturday, March 14, 9:40 AM
Titans running back Tony Pollard has quietly strung together four-straight 1,200+ yard campaigns, while scoring no fewer than five touchdowns, and while Tennessee was one of the most aggressive spenders in the early waves of free agency, the backfield remains relatively unchanged from 2025. Pollard's role heading into 2026 again looks to carry underrated fantasy relevance, but there is no escaping the growing rumors tying Tennessee to Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love with the 4th overall pick in the NFL Draft. With new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll's history of elevating quarterback play and increasing scoring opportunities, whoever lands the starting running back job for the Titans should find themselves in a suddenly attractive situation. Unfortunately for Pollard, the drafting of Love would all but signal the end of his week-to-week fantasy relevance.

Jordan Mason News
Wednesday, March 4, 1:00 PM
Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason could be in line for a bigger backfield role with the Vikings next season, with fellow RB Aaron Jones Sr. set to be either released or traded this offseason. If Jones is off the roster going into the 2026 season, Mason would rise to the top of the RB depth chart, barring offseason additions through free agency or the draft. The 26-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Georgia Tech had a career-low 4.8 yards per carry, but he was still very productive as a complementary back to Jones, carrying the ball a career-high 159 times for 758 rushing yards and a career-high six touchdowns in 16 games. Mason also had a career-high 14 catches for 51 yards through the air. We won't have the full picture on Mason's 2026 fantasy football value until after the NFL draft, but right now, his arrow is pointing up.
