Titans | Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears won't practice Wednesday Wed Sep 30, 12:28 PM
Titans RBs Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears will not practice on Wednesday. Spears limped off the field during Sunday's Week 3 loss at the Giants, and Pollard dealt with an ankle issue last week before avoiding an injury designation.
| Footballguys view: Both missed practice last week, but both played in Week 3. Spears seemed like he was a bit more banged up a week ago, then he left the Giants game. Circle back to see what Pollard does on Friday, and Fantasy GMs should plan on him being an RB3/flex option against the Ravens. For what it's worth, Titans HC Robert Saleh said he isn't concerned about either's injury status. |

Titans RB Tyjae Spears limped off the field during Sunday's game at the Giants after a completion by QB Cam Ward. He was able to return, however. Spears entered the game listed as questionable.
| Footballguys view: Tony Pollard ran the ball effectively in this game and should be the clear lead back against the Ravens next week with Spears ailing. He's a flex play in Week 4, and can serve as your RB2 in a pinch. |
Tyjae Spears player page
Titans RB Tyjae Spears is active for Sunday's Week 3 game against the Giants after being listed as questionable. CB Cor'Dale Flott, a former Giant who was also listed as questionable, is active as well. The Titans elevated RB Michael Carter on Saturday with Spears' status in doubt.

The Titans elevated RB Michael Carter from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Giants, with RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) questionable. Carter is one of many former Giants and Jets players returning to MetLife Stadium, where a heavy ground attack is expected on both sides in bad weather.
| Footballguys view: Spears is not expected to play in Week 3 against the Giants, so Carter gets the elevation here. The Titans will use a lot of Tony Pollard, and we like him as an RB3/flex option in this matchup. Without Spears, rookie Nicholas Singleton should be the next man up to spell Pollard. With rain in the forecast, the Titans could go 'mudding' with that combination at running back. |

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is questionable to play Sunday against the Giants.
| Footballguys view: After back-to-back DNPs to start the week, Spears returned on Friday in a limited capacity. Even if he is active, a split with Tony Pollard and Nicholas Singleton on a bad offense makes him a risky start. The best move with Spears this week is to keep him on your bench. |

Titans RB Tony Pollard (ankle) practiced on Thursday, September 24, after sitting out Wednesday's session, as Tennessee prepares for Sunday's game at the New York Giants. RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) was not spotted at practice on Thursday. TE Daniel Bellinger was also not spotted at practice, while CB Cor'Dale Flott (quad), who missed last Sunday's game, practiced again and said he thinks he is trending in the right direction.
| Footballguys view: Both Pollard and Spears missed Wednesday's practice, so at least Pollard is back out there on Thursday. While Spears may miss the game against the Giants (check back Friday to be sure), Pollard is trending in the right direction. Pollard is an RB3/deep flex play for Fantasy GMs in Week 3. |

The Titans' injury report from Wednesday's practice shows RB Tony Pollard (ankle) and RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) both did not practice ahead of Sunday's game at the New York Giants. CB Cor'Dale Flott (quad) and DT Solomon Thomas (knee) were limited, while G Fernando Carmona (shoulder) and LB James Williams Sr. (elbow) practiced in full. WR Wan'Dale Robinson, who has six catches for 47 yards through two games, said he expects the Titans passing game to 'start clicking even more as the run game has success' when he faces his former team, the Giants, on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Well, this is not a great start to the week of practice. With both backs missing practice on Wednesday, rookie Nicholas Singleton could get a larger workload in Week 3. The Titans are on the road for an early Sunday game against the Giants. |

Titans WR Chimere Dike left Sunday's loss to the Jets to be checked for a concussion. He was cleared and returned.
| Footballguys view: Upon return, Dike tried to spin out of a tackle and took a hit, causing him to fumble. The Jets recovered. Dike, who played just four offensive snaps on Sunday, can't afford too many missteps. Meanwhile, we'll be watching for any reports that Dike has concussion symptoms after the game. |

Cam Ward completed 19 of 32 passes for 140 yards and a score and added 21 yards on four rushes. Tony Pollard ran for 35 yards on seven carries and turned two targets into one catch for -1 yards. Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson both got six targets and racked up 38 receiving yards, Tate on four catches and Robinson on five catches.
| Footballguys view: The Titans offense never seriously threatened the Jets defense, with the only touchdown coming to Elic Ayomanor in garbage time. The offensive line is one of the worst in the league, and the Titans face a much tougher matchup at Philadelphia next week, so don't expect things to get better in the short term. All of your Titans should be on the bench in Week 2. |

Link to storyTennessee Titans WR Carnell Tate has impressed with his large catch radius and consistent hands-catching ability. The Titans have started to move Tate across the formation rather than always having him on the ball.
| Footballguys view: Tate is probably going to have some highlight reel plays that make a splash in the box score, but the Titans offense is going to be inconsistent to open the season considering its offensive line woes and new system, along with Cam Ward's preseason struggles. Tate is going in the 6th/7th round close to similar weekly boom/bust propositions like Brian Thomas Jr. and Marvin Harrison Jr.. |

| Footballguys view: This injury issue is behind him, but Pollard was in what appeared to be a committee backfield with Tyjae Spears in the preseason opener, which is not what fantasy football rankings assume right now. If you are going to dabble in the Titans backfield, Spears is available for free late in drafts and is the better pick at cost as long as he can stay healthy. |

| Footballguys view: Reporters at the workout said that Trubisky grabbed his right arm after throwing a pass. Trubisky is currently the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart behind Cam Ward. The veteran signed with the Titans as a free agent this offseason. Will Levis is the third quarterback on the roster and would be in line for more playing time if Trubisky is sidelined for a stretch. |
