Tony Pollard
2025 Season Outlooks
Pollard will again be the lead running back for the Titans, and he's worth drafting with a mid-round pick in all leagues. Pollard will continue to share touches with Tyjae Spears, but we still value Pollard as a low-end No. 2 running back/flex option in all formats. In 2024, Pollard set career highs in carries (260) and rushing yards (1,079) while scoring five touchdowns with 41 catches for 238 yards on 57 targets. He averaged 12.5 PPR points per game, but his numbers popped when Spears was injured. Pollard had seven games last season where he played at least 73 percent of the snaps, and he scored at least 14.7 PPR points in four of those outings. Spears will work in tandem with Pollard, and coach Brian Callahan said in May that "hopefully that division of labor gets a little more evenly distributed" this season between both running backs, which could be a problem for Pollard. But that will hopefully get offset by a better offense in Tennessee under new quarterback Cam Ward. Most likely, Pollard will be a solid value pick -- think Round 7 in a 12-team league -- and be a borderline No. 2 running back in all leagues.
Pollard returns for his second season as the Titans' lead back. He was busier than expected in 2024, when he finished eighth among RBs in carries and 10th in targets. He managed to produce his third consecutive season with 1,000-plus rushing yards and 1,300-plus from scrimmage, but didn't get much goal-line work (five carries inside the 5) and was limited to five TDs (one fewer than Tyjae Spears). Pollard reached 19 fantasy points only once (Spears was out that week) and has finished just one season in his career better than 22nd in fantasy PPG (2022 in Dallas). Entering his age-28 season, Pollard is again expected to lead Tennessee's run game, but Spears will be involved once back from injury, especially in passing situations. Pollard is a solid flex.
