Tony Pollard Returns to Full Practice on Thursday

Thursday, October 8, 4:25 PM

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after he was held out of practice on Wednesday, according to Jim Wyatt of the team's official website. Pollard has been battling through a minor foot injury in recent weeks, but he has not missed any games and should be good to go for Sunday's divisional tilt against the winless Houston Texans. The 29-year-old has a lower ceiling because of Tennessee's weak offense and the presence of pass-catching back Tyjae Spears. However, fantasy managers cannot really complain that Pollard has seen at least 14 rushing attempts in each of the last three games after carrying the ball just seven times for 35 yards in the Week 1 loss to the New York Jets. Pollard had 16 attempts for 48 yards and his first touchdown of 2026 in Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens, adding two catches for two yards as a receiver. He should be viewed as more of a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex as the Titans look for their first win of the season.

Tyler Allgeier Still Worth Stashing in 12-Team Leagues

Monday, October 12, 6:57 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier remains worth stashing ahead of Week 6, although his limited workload makes him difficult to trust as an immediate fantasy starter. Allgeier managed just seven yards on three carries in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions, adding two receptions for nine yards. Rookie Jeremiyah Love handled 12 rushing attempts for 22 yards, continuing to operate as Arizona's primary ball carrier. Allgeier still played 45.1% of the offensive snaps and ran 24 routes compared to Love's 15, but that playing time hasn't translated into consistent touches. He has reached double-digit carries just once this season, and his eight-carry, 42-yard performance with a touchdown against the Giants in Week 4 remains his only trip to the end zone. James Conner also remains eligible to return from injured reserve, potentially adding another complication to the backfield. Allgeier offers considerable insurance value if Love misses time, but fantasy managers should view him as a bench stash rather than a Week 6 streamer against the Rams.
