STACKED’s take
Pollard faces Texans' elite run defense; TD odds under 29% signal bench this week.
Pollard has put together a nice string of fantasy performances with 13 fantasy points in back-to-back weeks, but that likely ends this week against Houston. The Texans are holding running backs to just 3.55 yards per carry despite facing Jonathan Taylor and James Cook already; both star backs were held to under 70 rushing yards. Overall, the Texans are the third-worst matchup for fantasy backs when adjusting each defense for opponents faced. There is also a massive discrepancy between the Texans defensive line (Will Anderson, Danielle Hunter) and a downright bad Titans offensive line. Betting and prediction markets peg Pollard's touchdown odds at less than 29%, an impressively low number for a starting NFL running back. The source recommends parking Pollard on the fantasy bench this week.
