Should I Start Tony Pollard?

The Green Bay Packers inquired about Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard, according to Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport of ESPN, as pointed out by Rob Demovsky of ESPN. According to Schefter and Rapoport, "Tennessee would not have traded (Pollard) for anything less than at least a third-round pick." Obviously, the Packers weren't able to make the move, but it is an interesting note. Green Bay has the worst rushing offense in the NFL, averaging just 68.2 yards per game on the ground. Green Bay's starting running back, Josh Jacobs (finger), had surgery on his broken finger earlier this week, and he is expected to return "in the next few weeks." In the meantime, the Packers will rely on running backs Kaleb Johnson, MarShawn Lloyd, and Pierre Strong Jr., while Chris Brooks (ankle) is questionable for a Week 10 game against the Minnesota Vikings. As for Pollard, he has rushed 133 times for 595 yards (4.5 yards per attempt) and six touchdowns, while adding 14 receptions for 70 yards (5.0 yards per catch) in 2026.
