Tony Pollard Fantasy Stats

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) missed practice again Monday, his second straight absence after sitting out Saturday. Head coach Robert Saleh said over the weekend that Pollard was dealing with a sore foot and hoped to have him back Monday, but Pollard remained sidelined. He had played Thursday against San Francisco, running four times for 22 yards and scoring from five yards out on Tennessee's opening drive. Pollard started all 17 games last season and ran for a career-high 1,082 yards on 242 carries. Tennessee was thin at running back Monday, too, with Nick Singleton and Kalel Mullings also out. Pollard is still listed ahead of Tyjae Spears on the Titans' unofficial depth chart, and Saleh described the recent injuries as minor aches and bruises. There isn't much reason for fantasy managers to move Pollard down yet. If he's still out later in the week, though, the foot becomes a little harder to shrug off.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard worked with the starting unit in the team's preseason opener on Thursday night in the 19-13 win over the San Francisco 49ers and made an impact on the ground, carrying the ball four times for 22 yards and the team's lone rushing score. The 29-year-old was not targeted in the passing game. Pollard had a 12-yard run on the team's first play from scrimmage, and his touchdown run came from five yards out. There have been reports this offseason that pass-catching back Tyjae Spears could have a bigger role in the backfield in new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll's scheme, but Pollard put his best foot forward in the preseason opener toward securing the RB1 role in Tennessee's backfield. Pollard quietly had his fourth straight 1,000-yard rushing season in 2025 in his second year with the Titans, adding five touchdown runs and 33 receptions for 206 yards through the air in 17 starts. He's been flex-worthy for fantasy managers the last two years in a bad Titans offense, so if Tennessee can improve in 2026 under Daboll, Pollard could bring more RB3/flex value at the RB position.

During a Q&A on Titans Camp Live, reporter Paul Kuharsky said Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard is expected to get at least 12 carries per game this season, ideally up to 16 if the team is in the lead. Kuharsky also said fifth-round rookie Nicholas Singleton would compete for Pollard's workload, while Tyjae Spears would handle receiving and third-down work. Pollard is one of two backs to have four consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons, alongside Ravens running back Derrick Henry. With Spears and now Singleton competing for carries, Pollard will hope the Titans' offense takes a leap in production under offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and second-year quarterback Cam Ward.

Across 17 games in 2025, Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard recorded 1,288 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns on 275 touches. By measure of per-game PPR scoring, Pollard finished the year as the RB30. The veteran back has been both durable and consistent in recent years, recording four consecutive seasons with at least 16 games played, 1,000 rushing yards, and 200 receiving yards. However, he's scored just 10 touchdowns across 33 career games as a Titan. While Tennessee's offense should continue to improve in 2026, it still profiles as a mid-tier unit at best heading into the year. Additionally, Pollard is now entering his age-29 season with over 7,500 career touches already under his belt. Tennessee has already shifted more of the backfield receiving workload to running back Tyjae Spears in recent seasons and also added a running back in the 2026 NFL Draft in Nicholas Singleton. As the RB28 by current redraft ADP, Pollard may have trouble paying off his draft-day price.

Across 17 games in 2025, Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard recorded 1,288 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns on 275 touches. The 29-year-old has been both consistent and durable in recent years, recording four consecutive seasons with at least 16 games played and 1,000 rushing yards. Pollard may also have more chances to score touchdowns in 2026 in what should be an improved Titans offense in quarterback Cam Ward's second NFL season. However, Pollard is entering his final year under contract with Tennessee in 2026. The Titans have a new coaching staff in place and a couple of younger running back options on the roster in Tyjae Spears and fifth-round rookie Nicholas Singleton. Pollard has averaged just 4.5 yards per touch over his first two seasons in Tennessee, so he's highly reliant on volume for fantasy production. In dynasty formats, managers may want to sell high on Pollard ahead of a potential workload decline in 2026.

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.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has topped 1,000 rushing yards and 30 receptions in each of the last four seasons, never finishing below RB24 in that time, but at 29 years old, dynasty managers have seemingly been looking to move on from him for half his career. With the Titans' selection of Penn State's Nicholas Singleton in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, Pollard has fallen to RotoBaller's dynasty RB41, making him a prime buy-candidate for competing managers looking to add depth to a position that can never be deep enough. New Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll comes into Tennessee familiar with Pollard's work, as some of the latter's best games with the Cowboys came against Daboll's Giants teams. With Singleton never fully living up to the hype that made him a five-star recruit, evidenced by his fall to the fifth round, and Tyjae Spears seeing more than 10 carries only once in 2025, the starting running back job in Tennessee should still belong to Pollard. With the Titans' offense trending up heading into 2026, another RB2 finish is well within the realm of possibility.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard appears to remain atop the depth chart following the first three rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft. The Titans entered the draft with plenty of needs on their roster, and running back ranked near the middle in terms of priority. After they selected a wide receiver fourth overall and didn't draft a running back on Day 2, it appears that the Titans are content with a backfield featuring Pollard and Tyjae Spears next year. Both backs will chip into each other's workloads, but Pollard remains the favorite to carve out a fantasy-relevant role. Now 28, Pollard is coming off a solid season in which he ranked as the overall RB23 with 1,288 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns. From Week 14-18, he was the overall RB11, scoring three touchdowns and delivering three 100-yard performances during that span. He has also accumulated 1,000+ rushing yards and a top-24 running back finish in each of the last four seasons. Heading into his eighth NFL season, Pollard continues to possess fantasy appeal as the Titans' primary ball-carrier in an upward-trending offense.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has held onto the No. 1 role throughout the first few weeks of free agency. The only notable running back signing the Titans have made so far is Michael Carter, who projects as the third-string back behind Pollard and Tyjae Spears. Both Spears and Carter should log some touches, but we expect Pollard to remain in the lead-back role heading into the final portion of his three-year, $21 million contract. The 28-year-old managed to finish as the overall RB23 in PPR leagues last season, largely thanks to a strong second half. From Week 14-18, he was the overall RB11, scoring three touchdowns and delivering three 100-yard performances during that span. Pollard has accumulated 1,000+ rushing yards in each of the last four seasons, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him hit that mark again in 2026, as long as the Titans don't select his replacement in this month's NFL Draft. The veteran ball-carrier is a hold in most dynasty leagues, since his fantasy outlook post-2026 remains murky.

Titans running back Tony Pollard has quietly strung together four straight 1,200-plus-yard campaigns while scoring no fewer than five touchdowns. While Tennessee was one of the most aggressive spenders in the early waves of free agency, the backfield remains relatively unchanged from 2025. Pollard's role heading into 2026 again looks to carry underrated fantasy relevance, but there is no escaping the growing rumors tying Tennessee to Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love with the 4th overall pick in the NFL Draft. With new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll's history of elevating quarterback play and increasing scoring opportunities, whoever lands the starting running back job for the Titans should find themselves in a suddenly attractive situation. Unfortunately for Pollard, the drafting of Love would all but signal the end of his week-to-week fantasy relevance.
