Tyjae Spears Fantasy Stats

In the lowest-scoring offense (14.2 points per game) in the league, Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has a low ceiling and low floor for fantasy managers, and he should only be rostered in point-per-reception leagues. In the Week 13 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, Spears had two rushing attempts for a loss of one yard, but he salvaged his fantasy day by catching all six of his targets for 25 yards through the air. The 24-year-old's six catches were tied for the team lead, and his six targets were second on the team. Since returning from Injured Reserve due to a high-ankle sprain, Spears has a very modest 39 carries for 158 yards and one touchdown while adding 28 receptions for 173 yards on 30 targets in eight games. Fantasy managers cannot count on him to produce on the ground -- he's had more than five carries in a game only twice in eight games. Spears has had at least five targets in each of the last three games, though, which makes him a low-upside RB3/flex in deep PPR leagues going into a tough Week 14 matchup against the Cleveland Browns.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears continues to have a limited upside while splitting up the reps in the backfield. Spears has good long term upside, but has a limited ceiling while he continues to split up the backfield duties with Tony Pollard. At the moment, Pollard gets most of the ground work while Spears does the receiving work in the backfield. Last week, Spears rushed three times for four yards, while hauling in four receptions for 21 yards in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old is worth stashing in dynasty formats, but doesn't have great upside in redraft formats. At best, Spears offers low-end flex value for the upcoming matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears continued to share time in the backfield in Week 12's matchup with the Seahawks. He only had three carries for four yards, compared to Tony Pollard's 11 carries for 20 yards. Each running back also posted exactly four catches on five targets for 21 yards. While Pollard got more work this week, Spears played 43% of snaps and remains in almost an even snap share. If he can get going in any week, he'll likely end up with over 50% of snaps, as he did in Week 8 and Week 11. His best game of the year was Week 8 against Indianapolis, when he had nine carries for 59 yards and his only touchdown of the season. Spears is getting enough work to still be a deep-league flex play from the waiver wire, although he has tough running back matchups against the Jaguars and Browns the next two weeks.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears had a tough time as a rusher in Week 11 against the Houston Texans, recording just three rushing yards on four carries. However, Spears played a role in the passing game, logging five catches for 31 yards on five targets. Across his last five games, the 24-year-old has now hauled in 18 catches for 127 yards on 19 targets. With Spears continuing to share rushing work with fellow Titans back Tony Pollard, fantasy managers should not expect much rushing production in a tough Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Through 11 weeks, Seattle ranks fifth in the NFL in yards per carry allowed (3.9) and fourth in rushing touchdowns allowed (sixth). At the same time, Seattle is allowing more targets per game (7.3) to running backs than any other NFL defense. Spears could have an opportunity to expand upon his receiving role against the Seahawks. He profiles as a low-end flex option for fantasy managers in Week 12.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears continues to be an intriguing fantasy option in half-PPR and full-PPR leagues, given his heavy involvement on passing downs. The 24-year-old has caught at least three passes in all five of his games so far this year, and he logged a season-high five receptions last Sunday against the Houston Texans. He continues to split snaps with Tony Pollard, and while Pollard has earned more carries, Spears has a major advantage with his receiving workload. This week, the Titans take on the Seattle Seahawks, who have allowed the fourth-most receptions and seventh-most receiving yards to opposing running backs in 2025. Spears is in a perfect position to carve out a large target volume again this week. He should be viewed as a high-end RB3/flex option in most fantasy leagues.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears had four carries for three yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Spears also had five catches for 31 yards on five targets. The 24-year-old was able to claw out 8.4 fantasy points, making it the fifth straight game with over seven fantasy points. Sunday also marked the third time this season Spears out-snapped backfield mate Tony Pollard in a game. Spears continues to live off his receiving production to stay flex-worthy for fantasy managers in PPR leagues. Nearly all of his fantasy points were earned through the air, making it the fourth time in five games this season he's done that. Spears will remain a flex option in PPR leagues despite a difficult matchup against a top-ranked Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 12.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears will have a tough matchup as his team returns from its bye week against the Texans, but he's worth a look from the waiver wire since he has been working in such a prominent role in the Titans' backfield. Spears missed the first four weeks of the season, but he played between 40% and 60% of the team's snaps in each of the last four weeks. In his five games, he has 30 carries for 152 yards and a touchdown, while adding 13 catches for 96 more yards. He has at least three catches in each of the last four weeks and should be fully healthy coming down the stretch for the Titans. The offense has struggled under Cam Ward, but as the rookie finds his way, Spears could be an interesting late-season addition. He has some favorable RB matchups ahead with the Jaguars, 49ers, and Saints remaining on his schedule down the road.

In five games since returning from an ankle injury that held him out to start the 2025 season, Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has recorded 248 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 43 touches. The 24-year-old has been a consistent feature in the Titans' passing game, earning at least four targets and three receptions in each of his last four contests. Spears and veteran back Tony Pollard have been splitting backfield work relatively evenly in Tennessee. However, Pollard's name has been floated on the trade block, and there's a chance the rebuilding Titans move him before Tuesday's trade deadline. Spears could move into must-start territory as a fantasy running back if Pollard is moved. Even if the Titans hold on to Pollard, Spears has flex appeal in the right matchups. In shallow leagues where Spears remains available, he's worth targeting on the waiver wire even as the Titans hit their Week 10 bye.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears is beginning to carve out a larger role in the offense. After missing the first four games with a high-ankle sprain, Spears has impressed since returning, averaging 5.5 yards per carry on 23 attempts. Offensive Coordinator Nick Holz praised his Week 8 performance, calling it "a good reminder of what he can do with the ball in his hands." With Tony Pollard at the center of trade rumors, Spears could see a noticeable uptick in touches moving forward. While Tennessee's upcoming schedule is challenging, Spears' explosiveness and versatility as a pass-catcher give him the upside to be a potential league-winner down the stretch.

Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Nick Holz said Sunday "was a reminder of what running back Tyjae Spears can do with the ball in his hands," according to Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com. Holz is "hoping it's a sign of more things to come," and Spears is expected to remain involved alongside Tony Pollard in the backfield. Spears played over 50% of the offensive snaps in the Week 8 loss to the Indianapolis Colts and outproduced Pollard on two fewer carries while also scoring his first touchdown of the year. The 24-year-old missed time earlier this year due to injury, but now that he's back to full health, he's become a bigger part of the offense. It sounds like the Titans envision more of a split backfield between Spears and Pollard. It's good news for Spears' fantasy managers, but the timeshare situation still probably caps his fantasy value as an RB3/flex in PPR leagues.
