Spears might be the greatest injury concern at running back league-wide. Nicholas Singleton is closer to the field than most other RB3s, because both of the guys ahead of him have volume limitations.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Singleton closer to field than typical RB3 due to Spears' injury history.

Robert Saleh made clear that Tennessee's RB1 is Tony Pollard and RB2 is Tyjae Spears, making Singleton the RB3 as a rookie fifth-round pick. However, durability is not the strong suit of either Pollard or especially Spears. Spears might be the greatest injury concern at running back league-wide due to his recent history of concussions and long-term history of knee concerns. Like Coleman in Denver, Singleton is closer to the field than most other RB3s because both players ahead of him have volume limitations. Pollard is a former receiver who weighs no more than 210 pounds, and Spears projects for much less volume. Singleton is bigger and much faster than either Pollard or Spears, and is a plus pass catcher—possibly the best receiver between himself, Pollard, and Spears. If Pollard or Spears misses time, Singleton immediately becomes important.
