Tony Pollard's Dynasty Stock Rising in Improving Tennessee Offense?

Tuesday, June 2, 12:21 PM

Across 17 games in 2025, Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard recorded 1,288 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 275 touches. The 29-year-old has quietly been one of the more consistent rushers in the NFL in recent years, logging four consecutive seasons with at least 16 games played and 1,000 rushing yards. However, the questionable offensive environment around Pollard in Tennessee has limited his upside, particularly in terms of scoring touchdowns. Across 33 career games with the Titans, Pollard has found pay dirt just 10 times. Entering 2026, Pollard once again projects to lead a backfield split with fellow Titans back Tyjae Spears. Spears has handled the majority of the team's receiving work when both backs are healthy, which is another constraint on Pollard's production ceiling. Still, Pollard has a projectable production floor, and the Titans' offense could be on its way up in quarterback Cameron Ward's second NFL season. In dynasty formats, Pollard has value as a high-floor, win-now flex option.

Tyjae Spears Facing Competition in a Contract Year

Sunday, April 26, 9:18 AM

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears will face added competition in the backfield during the 2026 season. Spears and teammate Tony Pollard survived the first two days of the draft without the team selecting a running back, but that changed on Day 3 when they selected Penn State standout Nicholas Singleton. Singleton had an explosive 2024 season but cooled off in 2025, dropping his draft stock significantly. Still, the Penn State product has proven that he is a talented player capable of contributing on the ground or through the air. That's bad news for Spears, who is a pass-catching specialist and typically gets on the field for third downs. Singleton had 91 catches and 902 receiving yards over his final three collegiate seasons. It's a contract year for Spears, so he'll do everything he can to fight for playing time so that he can showcase himself ahead of free agency. Day 3 picks typically don't contribute right away, so Spears will at least have an opportunity to solidify his role early in the season.
