Tyjae Spears Has Impressed this Offseason

Wednesday, June 18, 3:04 PM

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has impressed this offseason, according to team writer Jim Wyatt. "Spears looked explosive on the field this offseason, when he got plenty of work," Wyatt wrote. "While Tony Pollard got the bulk of the work last fall, Spears showed flashes at different times. If he can stay healthy, he seems poised to be a consistent playmaker in 2025." The 2023 third-round pick out of Tulane struggled to stay healthy last season, missing five games due to multiple injuries. Overall, he tallied 84 rushing attempts for 312 yards and four scores to go with 30 receptions for 224 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown in 12 games. Titans head coach Brian Callahan has hinted at more of a split backfield in 2025, and the team could opt to use the "hot hand" approach. Fantasy managers should not rely on Spears as an RB2, RB3, or flex option to begin next year's campaign, but he's an intriguing handcuff stash and late-round draft dart throw in most formats. If No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward exceeds expectations in Year 1, the Tennessee offense could have more upside than suggested by the cost of the Titans' players in fantasy drafts.

TreVeyon Henderson Standing Out in Passing Game

Saturday, July 26, 1:06 PM

Mike Kadlick of SI.com writes that New England Patriots rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson is going to have quite the impact on the team's passing game and is always open in the early portion of training camp. What Henderson lacks in size (5-foot-10, 202 pounds) and power, he makes up for with speed (4.43-second 40-yard dash) and his pass-catching chops. The Pats still have Rhamondre Stevenson around as the primary between-the-tackles option, but the 22-year-old Henderson should be plenty involved as well in his first NFL season after being taken with the 38th overall pick in the second round in April. New England also has veteran Antonio Gibson in the fold, but Henderson could be the primary pass-catching back right away and could lead the backfield in touches in 2025 when it's all said and done. RotoBaller has him ranked as the RB23 in fantasy.
