BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB2
ANALYSIS: Tony Pollard should be viewed as a high-end RB2 and a must-start in fantasy leagues this week against the Colts.
His strong Week 4 performance, where he ran for 88 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries, showed that Pollard remains the focal point of Tennessee's ground game.
His high volume of touches makes him a reliable option in both standard and PPR leagues, ensuring a steady floor for fantasy managers. With the Colts' defense allowing 4.5 yards per carry so far this season, Pollard is set up for another productive outing.
Additionally, Pollard's involvement in the Titans' offense is not just limited to the run game. His versatility as a pass-catching back provides added value in PPR formats, as he can contribute through the air as well.
The bye week also gave Pollard time to rest, ensuring he is fresh and ready to handle a full workload against a Colts defense that can be exploited on the ground.
Given the favorable matchup and Pollard's consistent usage, he should be viewed as a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside this week.
