Impact Pollard remains Tennessee's unquestioned starter, but this offseason head coach Brian Callahan had consistently stated a desire to more evenly distribute backfield reps between the former Cowboy and Spears. That plan will have to wait until Spears is fully recovered from his high-ankle sprain, which won't be until Week 5 at the earliest. As such, Pollard appears primed for a workhorse role to begin the campaign, with only Julius Chestnut and Kalel Mullings (ankle) currently available to contribute as backups. The Titans seem a strong candidate to pursue other RBs in advance of their opener, however.

Impact Pollard remains Tennessee's unquestioned backfield starter, but head coach Brian Callahan had consistently stated a desire throughout the offseason to more evenly distribute backfield reps between he and Spears. If that plan does come to fruition in 2025, it'll have to wait until Spears is fully recovered from his high-ankle sprain, which won't be until Week 5 at the earliest. As such, beginning Week 1 against the Broncos and through at least the rest of September, Pollard appears primed for a workhorse role out of the backfield. Julius Chestnut and Kalel Mullings (ankle) are available to contribute in rotational roles, though the Titans seem a strong candidate to pursue backfield depth in advance of the regular-season opener.

Finds end zone in preseason start Pollard rushed the ball four times for nine yards in Saturday's 29-7 preseason loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Pollard played two offensive drives with the starting offense and out-carried Tyjae Spears (ankle) 4-2. The primary goal of the drives appeared to be to get Cameron Ward reps, which limited Pollard's opportunities. However, Pollard still punched in a one-yard touchdown, the Titans' only score of the game. Spears suffered an ankle injury during the contest, which could affect Pollard's workload in the regular season.

Listed as lone starter Pollard is listed alone atop the running back position in Tennessee's first unofficial depth chart, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact The Titans' coaching staff has talked up an even backfield split between Pollard and Tyjae Spears this offseason, but Pollard still holds the top spot on the depth chart. That could be notable relative to last season, when Pollard and Spears were listed as co-starters on the initial depth chart. Pollard has handled roughly 250 carries each of the last two seasons, while Spears has not topped 100 in either of his two years as a pro. While those numbers could move toward each other in 2025, it appears as though Pollard is still in a position to lead the backfield.

Coach envisions even backfield split Titans head coach Brian Callahan said Wednesday that the team intends to deploy a backfield distribution that allows Pollard and Tyjae Spears to "play a little more evenly" in 2025...

Impact Callahan said Pollard, who compiled a career-high 1,079 rushing yards plus five scores on 260 carries (4.2 YPC) last season, "was our most productive running back" but acknowledged that he "was battling the second half of the year quite a bit" and struggled to remain fully healthy, as did Spears. "So hopefully that division of labor gets a little more evenly distributed so [Pollard] doesn't have to take the brunt of it," Callahan said, also expressing a desire to work a third back into the mix between Julius Chestnut and rookie sixth-rounder Kalel Mullings (abdomen). Pollard said the right high ankle sprain he dealt with late in 2024 is "ready to go" and that "getting more guys involved, keeping guys fresh" would be "ideal." A decrease in overall workload could allow the 28-year-old Pollard to better maintain his efficiency for a full 17-game slate, and even if he doesn't reprise a workhorse role, he's positioned to repeat as Tennessee's top backfield option. With Cam Ward now under center rather than Will Levis, there's also room for this offense to improve as a whole and provide enough increased scoring opportunities for Pollard's fantasy value as an RB2 to remain safely intact.
