BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 48% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The favorable touch totals that are being distributed to Tyjae Spears on a weekly basis continue to provide fantasy managers with the incentive to seize him for their rosters.
Derrick Henry remains Tennessee’s lead back; however, Spears has now accumulated 175 snaps, including 30+ in three consecutive matchups. The electric rookie also led the Titans’ backfield with 31 snaps in Week 6, while Henry accrued 29. Spears has performed efficiently as a rusher, generating 171 rushing yards with his 31 attempts (5.5 yards per attempt).
Spears continues to lead the Titans backfield in routes run (96), which includes the 16 that he accumulated in Week 6. Henry has accrued 66 routes, after running nine in Week 6. Spears is also pacing the backfield in targets (20/13), while also collecting 15 receptions and assembling 111 yards as a receiver. That includes Spears’ 48-yard catch in Week 6.
Spears would launch into a massive workload if Henry were sidelined during Tennessee's upcoming matchups. His playmaking ability could also propel him to RB1 output if that transpires. The Titans are on a bye in Week 7.
