Bottom Line

Spears flashed as a talented runner and receiver last season behind Derrick Henry.

It looked like he might get a shot as the starter this season, but the team invested heavily in Tony Pollard in free agency.

Spears' receiving ability will be his calling card and could make him solid RB3 in PPR with major upside if Pollard gets injured.

What We Learned Last Year

  • Spears’ 453 rushing yards ranked 42nd among RBs. His 52 catches tied for ninth at the position.
  • He did not miss any games due to injury.
  • Spears ranked as the PPR RB34 in total fantasy points and RB42 in points per game.
    • He finished RB12 or better one time. He recorded two games between RB13 and RB24.
  • He ranked 52nd among all ball carriers in rushing success rate at 34.3%.
  • He played 53% of the Titans’ offensive snaps last season.
  • His per-game averages:
    • 5.88 carries
    • 26.6 rushing yards
    • 0.12 rushing TDs
    • 4.12 targets
    • 3.06 catches
    • 22.6 receiving yards
    • 0.06 receiving TDs
  • Among 51 RBs with 90+ carries last year, Spears ranked:
    • 34th in Pro Football Focus rushing grade
    • Eighth in PFF’s Elusive Rating
    • 32nd in NFL Next Gen Stats’ Rush Yards Over Expected Per Attempt
  • His receiving metrics were outstanding. Among 43 RBs with 30+ targets, Spears ranked:
    • Seventh in PFF receiving grade
    • 11th in yards per route run

What to Expect in 2024

  • Spears enters his second season on the Titans, but his first season with:
    • HC and play caller Brian Callahan
    • OC Nick Holz
  • The Titans are expected to perform similarly to last season. They are fourth in highest win total in the AFC South at 6.5 wins on most sportsbooks.
  • They sit tied for 27th in terms of highest Super Bowl odds at +15000 on most sportsbooks.
  • Spears enters his second season at 23 years old. According to our aging curve research, the average RB with Spears’ career and profile will produce at 93% of peak value at age-23.
  • Spears beat new teammate Pollard last year in:
    • Rush yards after contact per attempt
    • PFF Elusive Rating
    • Rush yards over expected per attempt
    • PFF receiving grade
    • Yards per route run

Tony Pollard, RB TEN

6:29am EDT 10/1/24

Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears, Combine for 127 Rush Yards

Titans RB Tyjae Spears set season highs in carries (15) and yards (39) in Monday’s win over Miami. But Tony Pollard again led the backfield, this time with 88 yards on 22 carries. Tennessee lost QB Will Levis to injury in the first quarter and nursed a lead throughout the game. That produced 37 total team RB attempts.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Packers. He put in a full practice on Friday, so we’re not expecting the ankle to be a major issue. Still, Spears would be a shaky fantasy starter after seeing just four carries with four targets in a healthy Week 1.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is expected to play today. He's listed as questionable but was a full-go in Friday's practice. We're not expecting the ankle to be a major factor today, but Spears remains a fringy fantasy play.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He put in a full practice on Friday, though, and HC Brian Callahan confirmed that Spears will play. He’d be a shaky fantasy starter after seeing just four carries with four targets in a healthy Week 1.

Titans RB Tyjae Spears (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That seemingly puts him on track to play vs. the Packers this weekend, but we'll see how Spears is listed on the final injury report tomorrow. He'd be no better than a low-end RB3 if he suits up, but he'd siphon touches from lead back Tony Pollard.

Dynasty Write-up
Spears rebounded from a 2020 ACL tear to post 2,444 yards over the next 2 seasons. While undersized, the Tulane product is a capable pass catcher with excellent burst and agility. He showed that in 2023, filling a change-of-pace role behind Derrick Henry en route to 837 total yards. He looked like a 2024 breakout candidate...until Tennessee spent up to sign Tony Pollard. They'll battle for touches in training camp.
