Who Should I Start? Tony Pollard or RJ Harvey

Friday, November 13, 3:30 PM

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard went into the Week 9 bye after two monster performances of 28-plus fantasy points, rushing 46 times for 256 yards and five touchdowns over the past two weeks. He has also established himself as the clear engine of Tennessee's offense of late, averaging more than 21 carries per game over his past three outings. Pollard appeared on the injury report this week with a finger issue, but he practiced fully on Wednesday and Friday and carries no injury designation into Sunday. The matchup is a much bigger concern. Jacksonville has surrendered just 714 rushing yards through eight games, fifth-fewest in the league, while allowing only 3.7 yards per carry and five rushing touchdowns. Opposing running backs are averaging just 15.9 PPR points per game as an entire position group against the Jaguars, second-fewest in the NFL. Tennessee will also be without starting guard Peter Skoronski, which doesn't help an already inconsistent run-blocking unit. Pollard's workload and goal-line role keep him in the RB2 conversation, but fantasy managers should temper expectations after his Week 8 and 9 explosions.
