I'm kind of surprised here, I'm not gonna lie.

Tony Pollard has dominated the Titans backfield with more than 60% of snaps in each game.

33 total carries and a touchdown plus a healthy amount of receiving work.

Taj Spears is dealing with an ankle injury so that could really boost Pollard's numbers this week and if he is out or limited, that would absolutely happen.

But regardless of his status here, I am leaning into Tony Pollard this week has yet to break into the top 10 and this is his week to do so against the Green Bay Packers.

I love my Packers here, but I can admit that they are the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to running backs sewn Barkley finished as the overall RB one against the Packers.

In week one.

Jonathan Taylor averaged over eight yards per carry against the Packers in week two.

And in week three, Tony Pollard will have 20 carries for over 100 and 20 rushing yards and a touchdown.
