BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-plus team leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears returned to the lineup last week following a three-game absence. In his return, Spears played a season-high 46% of the team's offensive snaps while seeing double-digit touches for the second time all season. That is certainly good news for his fantasy value moving forward.
However, Spears will be a risky flex play in Week 11 against the Vikings. Minnesota has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing running backs this season. So, the second-year back should only be started in 14-plus team leagues this weekend.
Tyjae Spears made his return to play in week 10 and split work in the Titans backfield.

He is only averaging 9.1 touches per game this season while seeing eight touches or less in four of his six games. So, it might be hard to rely on the Titans running back as a flex option in Week 11. Minnesota has limited several running backs in fantasy this season, and Spears will likely only see between 20 and 30 snaps in this game.
