Tony Pollard - 2025 Fantasy Football Sleepers and Undervalued Draft Picks

Tony Pollard is a fantasy football sleeper undervalued draft pick for 2025. Read the fantasy football outlook and draft advice for the Tennessee Titans running back.

RotoBaller Ranking (half-PPR): RB22

Fantasy Draft Analysis: Tony Pollard posted his third straight 1,000-yard rushing season in 2024. He set a new career high with 1,079 rushing yards and scored five rushing touchdowns as well. Pollard would finish the 2024 season as the overall RB21.

While that was all good, the six-year veteran did average only 4.15 yards per carry last year. It was a far cry from his best days with the Dallas Cowboys, but it was an improvement compared to his 2023 mark of 3.99 yards per carry. Several of his advanced metrics also improved compared to his 2023 season. Among 46 backs with 100+ attempts in 2024, Pollard finished:

Sixth in yards after contact per attempt, per Fantasy Points Data Suite

15th in missed tackles forced, per Fantasy Points Data Suite

18th in explosive run percentage, per Fantasy Points Data Suite

26th in rush yards over expected, per Next Gen Stats

Pollard is not the same player we saw during his best days with the Dallas Cowboys. But he proved last year he isn't totally washed and can still be a useful fantasy option. All in all, it was a solid 2024 campaign in a poor offense.

Titans head coach Brian Callahan has indicated he would like to see more of an even split between Pollard and third-year back Tyjae Spears. However, Callahan said this same thing heading into the season last year, only to give Pollard the majority of touches.
