• Titans' Julius Chestnut: Limited to special teams in Week 11

  11/18/2025 • By RotoWire

  Chestnut returned two kickoffs for 49 yards while playing all 18 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Texans. Chestnut went unused on offense for the second game in a row, as the Titans had Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears handle all of the snaps at running back. So long as Pollard and Spears are healthy, Chestnut doesn't look like he'll have a chance at earning meaningful touches, but he should continue to suit up on game days due to his standing as a core special-teams player. He ended up seeing his first chances of the season as a kickoff returner after Chimere Dike was forced out of Sunday's game early due to a chest contusion.

Chestnut remained the backup to Tony Pollard, though he was on the field for only seven offensive snaps. He has earned no more than two carries in a game this season and could shift down the depth chart in Week 5 if Tyjae Spears (ankle) can return.

  Chestnut rushed the ball two times for 26 yards in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts. Chestnut got consecutive carries on the Titans' opening drive of the third quarter, accounting for his only touches in the game. He still operated as the team's backup to Tony Pollard, even with the return of Kalel Mullings. Chestnut looks likely to remain in that role until Tyjae Spears (ankle) is healthy enough to be activated from injured reserve.
