BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has recorded 10 or more touches in three consecutive games, including the second-highest number of attempts he's had all season. While his current value may be limited behind a workhorse, any uptick in volume would elevate the rookie to a must-start status.
Spears offers little to no week-to-week value for fantasy managers. The reason to stash Spears is in the event of a Derrick Henry injury. If Henry were to miss time, Spears would walk into a role that would afford him 15 or more touches per game. He would end up being ranked as a RB2/3 depending on the matchup. He'd be volume-dependent since the Tennessee offense isn't very good. There are better handcuffs, but if they're already rostered, taking a shot on Spears could make some sense if you're looking for a high-upside, lottery play.
