Julius Chestnut fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 9 (2024). Should you start or sit Julius Chestnut for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 (If He's The Lead Back)
ANALYSIS: Legendary name, but unfortunately, not legendary player (we think). Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut could see the lead role with second-string back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) expected to be unavailable for Week 9, and RB1 Tony Pollard (foot) a game-time decision.
IF Julius Chestnut needs to step in for the Titans backfield, it’s hard to evaluate based on how little he has touched the ball. Already at a career-high in nfl carries at 11.

He's mainly a special teams guy that's been forced into an offensive role due to Spears' absence. But he will be the highest available RB on the depth chart if Pollard isn't able to suit up, and it's looking like there's a good chance he won't. However, even if TP isn't able to play, we just don't know much about Chestnut.
Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears both missed practice today.
Julius Chestnut is the next man up. He’s a fun player.
Here he is torching MIN’s 3rd-string defense last preseason if you’re into that sort of thing.pic.twitter.com/vAWMhBm311

Incredible name, really. He also had some nice highlights against guys who probably aren't on any NFL roster right now in the 2023 preseason, but he won't get to face any of those men again, unfortunately. Some teams truly are desperate enough to start Mr. Chestnut. Godspeed to them. Outside of leagues as deep as the Mariana Trench, it's risky to fire him up, but you never know.
