BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has emerged as the lead runner in that backfield and should be started in all standard formats as an RB2.
The 27-year-old has logged double the amount of snaps than the No.2 runner, Tyjae Spears throughout the first two weeks. In addition, Pollard has seen double-digit attempts every game and at least four targets.
On the ground Pollard has averaged 72 yards each game with an additional 26 receiving yards.
The former Cowboy has averaged 2.9 yards after contact and has been targeted on 27.8% of his routes out of the backfield.

Given his safe volume, Pollard should always be projected to have a safe floor but also some relative upside for red zone work.
This weekend, Pollard will face the Green Bay Packers who surrendered over 100 yards on the ground to Jonathan Taylor last week. Pollard is a safe RB2 in all formats in Week 3.
