Tyjae Spears is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 14 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Tyjae Spears' enticing potential to erupt for big plays has sustained his presence on the fantasy radar this season. It has also provided the rationale for adding him to rosters in all leagues, as the explosive rookie has remained fully capable of accumulating sizable yardage if his role were to expand at any time during the year.
This scenario transpired in Week 13 when Derrick Henry was sidelined with a head injury during the fourth quarter of Tennessee’s matchup with Indianapolis. That launched Spears into lead back responsibilities and he capitalized by accumulating 88 total yards with his 20 touches.
That includes Spears’ involvement as a rusher, as he established season-highs in carries (16) and rushing yards (75). Spears also ran 26 routes, while capturing four of his six targets and generating 13 yards as a receiving weapon.
Spears has now played on 369 snaps since Week 1 while accumulating 66 rushing attempts and assembling 329 rushing yards. Even though Henry is tracking to play in Week 14, Spears remains a high-end fantasy handcuff after strong usage in Week 13.
