Tyjae Spears fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Tyjae Spears for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: While Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears was seen as a breakout candidate coming into the 2024 season, good fantasy numbers haven't materialized, and it's been lead back Tony Pollard that's taken a majority of the touches.
While head coach Brian Callahan has expressed a desire to get Spears more involved, that hasn't turned into more production. Spears did have 15 carries in Week 4 but turned that into just 39 yards, though he did score a rushing touchdown. Pollard was much more efficient, with 22 carries for 88 yards and a touchdown.
For now, Pollard remains the clear lead back, and it's been that way since the start of the season. The Titans are unlikely to have 37 rush attempts between their top two backs most games. They faced a bad offense (Miami Dolphins without Tua Tagovailoa) in Week 4. For now, Spears' volume will probably remain too low to be fantasy relevant.
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB2 ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots' running back room has been heavily analyzed all summer long. TreVeyon Henderson's youth and explosiveness have consistently caught drafters' attention more often than Rhamondre Stevenson’s safer floor and secured volume. The two saw a similar workload last season until Stevenson […]
BALLER MOVE: Start as RB2 in PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: After three seasons as the Steelers' RB2 behind Najee Harris and making zero starts, Jaylen Warren finally took the starting job in 2025 and silenced many of his critics. He admittedly got off to a slow start, but really got going following a […]
BALLER MOVE: Start as WR3 in 12-Team PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Are NFL fans being too harsh on Marvin Harrison Jr.? The Ohio State product was picked fourth overall in 2024 and had an objectively solid rookie season, which was unfortunately overshadowed by Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Nabers, and Ladd McConkey's outstanding rookie […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: The Houston Texans shelled out a decent amount of cash, for an RB at least, to running back David Montgomery to have him join their team. He's now set to take over the Joe Mixon role, which was quite productive in 2024, before an injury essentially […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Pollard will be the lead back for the Tennessee Titans for yet another season. There may not be much to get excited about. While the team overhauled its coaching staff in the offseason, quarterback Cam Ward doesn't appear to have made much progress. It's controversial […]
