Tony Pollard has taken over as Tennessee's lead back over the last two weeks. He's been stellar on a per-touch basis. He could flirt with low-end RB2 production this week, but is best viewed as a nice flex play.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Pollard's lead-back role and elite per-touch efficiency position him for low-end RB2 upside.

Pollard has taken over as Tennessee's lead back over the last two weeks, averaging 18 touches and 80.5 total yards with a 53.7% snap share, 62% of rushing attempts, 33.3% route share, and 8.9% target share. He's been stellar on a per-touch basis, ranking ninth among 43 qualifying rushers in explosive run rate and seventh in yards after contact per attempt. Last week he was RB16 for the week and could flirt with low-end RB2 production this week as a nice flex play. Baltimore's run defense allows the sixth-highest explosive run rate, 13th-most yards before contact per attempt, and seventh-highest gap rushing success rate (Pollard: 65.8% gap runs).
