Who Should I Start? Tony Pollard or Terry McLaurin

Sunday, January 5, 11:46 AM

As expected, Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (ankle) is officially active on Sunday in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Houston Texans. After practicing on a limited basis all week, Pollard will return for the final game of the season after he sat out the Week 17 loss to the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars. Tyjae Spears (concussion) was ruled out, so Pollard could see a near full workload in his return as the Titans close out a disappointing season. The 27-year-old can earn an extra $250,000 if he racks up 83 rushing yards on the year for 1,100 yards on the season. If he scores twice on Sunday, he'd earn an extra $200,000, so Pollard could be busy and has plenty at stake for fantasy managers debating on whether to throw him into their starting lineups. He has clear RB2 upside for Week 18.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught four of his six targets for 87 yards and a score during their upset victory over the Detroit Lions on Saturday evening. McLaurin's best play of the evening came on a screen pass, which he took for a 58-yard score. Later in the fourth quarter, McLaurin would catch a crucial fourth down reception to keep a Washington drive alive. The 29-year-old has now found the back of the end zone in each of his previous three games. Last weekend, during their wild-card victory, McLaurin caught seven of his ten targets for 89 yards and a score. The former Ohio State Buckeye carries elite WR1 upside throughout the remainder of the postseason.
