Titans K Nick Folk (abdomen) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. Look elsewhere for a Week 16 fantasy kicker.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) did not practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. He’s been playing through injuries for much of the season, but this is seemingly the worst shape he’s been in. Pollard will be a risky fantasy play if he ends up active. If not, RB Tyjae Spears figures to handle most of the backfield work and would be a viable fantasy start.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He appeared to aggravate this ankle injury early in last week's game but was able to return. We're tentatively expecting him to play vs. the Colts this weekend but will continue to monitor his status. RB Tyjae Spears should be rostered in virtually all fantasy leagues in case Pollard ends up missing one of these last few games.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the Titans are expected to start QB Mason Rudolph against the Colts this weekend. QB Will Levis bottomed out (again) in the Week 15 loss to the Titans, completing 8 of 12 passes for 89 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INTs in about 2.5 quarters of action. Rudolph went 21-of-26 for 209 yards, 2 TDs, and 1 INT the rest of the way. His completion rate (63.0%) and yards per attempt (6.6) are nearly identical to Levis' this season. Rudolph has a bad 3.2% INT rate -- but less bad than Levis' 4.2%. And he's crushing Levis in sack rate (3.8% to 12.4%) Rudolph brings a bit more stability to Tennessee's offense but isn't a significant upgrade.
Titans TE Chig Okonkwo led the team in targets (10) and receptions (8) in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. His 59 receiving yards ranked second on the team, behind RB Tyjae Spears. He drew just
Titans RB Tony Pollard ran for just 45 yards on 17 carries in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. He scored a TD but also drew 0 targets for the first time all season. Blame a lack of opportunities. Pollard ran a mere 7 pass routes compared to 27 for Tyjae Spears, according to Pro Football Focus. That followed Spears edging Pollard 16-12 in Week 14 routes.
Titans RB Tyjae Spears tallied a team-high 87 receiving yards and a TD on 6 receptions in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. He added 5 rushing yards on 4 carries.
Titans QB Will Levis was benched in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He completed 8 of 12 passes for 89 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INTs. Levis had been playing reasonably well coming off his shoulder injury but has now had two duds in a row against bad Jaguars and Bengals defense. We'll see if Tennessee goes back to Levis next week or rolls with QB Mason Rudolph. Either way, it's a situation to avoid in fantasy lineups.
Titans RB Tony Pollard is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bengals with an ankle injury. This is presumably an aggravation of the issue that had him questionable coming in. We'll update Pollard's status when we know more. His absence leaves Tyjae Spears as Tennessee's lead back.
Update: Pollard returned with about five minutes left in the first half.
Titans LB Jerome Baker is inactive for today's game against the Bengals. He carried no injury designation into the weekend, so that indicates the veteran is a healthy scratch.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday and was listed as questionable, so there’s clearly some risk here. But Pollard has been playing through injuries for much of the season, and we’ve heard nothing about his volume being scaled back today. See where Pollard sits in the Week 15 RB Rankings.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Bengals today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pollard is listed as questionable after getting in only a limited practice on Friday. He's been playing well through injuries for much of the season, though. Barring a report about his workload being scaled back, Pollard can stay in fantasy lineups as a RB2.
Titans LBs Kenneth Murray and Jerome Baker carry no game designation on the week's final injury report and appear set to return for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. Pollard has been playing through injuries for much of the season, and we’re tentatively expecting him to play against Cincinnati. But the ankle issue adds risk to his fantasy profile. If Pollard ends up sitting, RB Tyjae Spears would control backfield work and be a viable fantasy start.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. We still don't have any information on this ankle issue. Pollard finished out last week's game, so we're still expecting him to play vs. the Bengals this weekend. But check back tomorrow for another update on his status. RB Tyjae Spears would become a viable Week 15 fantasy start if Pollard ends up sitting.
Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He played until the end of last week's game vs. the Jaguars, so this is likely a maintenance day. We'll see if Pollard practices tomorrow, but he can stay penciled into Week 15 fantasy lineups for now. Tyjae Spears would step in as Tennessee's lead back if Pollard misses Sunday's game vs. the Bengals.
Titans LBs Kenneth Murray Jr. and Jerome Baker are both inactive for today's game against the Jaguars. That leaves the team with James Williams and Otis Reese as the expected top two at the position. Williams has yet to play a defensive snap in the pros, and Reese has played just 98 total across two seasons. I won't be projecting either for Week 14 use, because I have no idea what we can expect from them in terms of playing time or production. Rookie Cedric Gray and 29-year-old journeyman Luke Gifford could also factor in. Tennessee will also go without slot CB Roger McCreary but gets CB Chidobe Awuzie back from IR.
The Titans defense gets a high-upside matchup with the Mac Jones-led Jaguars this Sunday, But the unit also has five potential starters questionable, including both starting LBs and a pair of corners. But they also expect to get CB Chidobe Awuzie back from IR. He hasn't played since Week 3 because of a groin injury.
Titans WR Treylon Burks had surgery on his ACL, HC Brian Callahan revealed Wednesday. Callahan added that Burks' ACL was "loose" but not torn. We'll see exactly what that means for Burks' recovery timeline, but we'd expect him to miss at least part of the offseason. And his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign could be in question. Burks was in the midst of another disappointing season prior to the knee injury, totaling four catches in five games. 2025 is the final year of his rookie contract. There's not much dynasty value left here.
Titans RB Tyjae Spears (concussion) is active for today’s game vs. the Commanders. He’s topped 10 touches in just one of seven games this season and is no better than a low-end RB3 or Flex in PPR leagues. But Spears’ return does put a dent in RB Tony Pollard’s volume projection.
