Titans' Tony Pollard: Heavy workload against NE
Tony Pollard rushed the ball 28 times for 128 yards in Sunday's 29-17 overtime win against the Patriots. He added three receptions on three targets for 26 yards.Pollard entered Sunday's game questionable due to a foot injury after failing to practice in any capacity throughout the week. That was hardly apparent in Sunday's win, as he dominated rushing attempts out of the Tennessee Titans' backfield and was also efficient with the opportunity. He accounted for the team's longest play from scrimmage with a 32-yard rush on Tennessee's first possession, setting up a touchdown on the next play. Overall, four of Pollard's 28 carries went for double-digit gains, and he narrowly missed out on an even bigger performance after having a touchdown nullified by a holding call. He should remain a key playmaker in Tennessee's offense moving forward.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Playing through foot injury
Tony Pollard is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessee Titans' official site reports.Pollard appeared to be trending toward an absence, as he failed to practice in any capacity throughout the week. However, he tested his foot in pregame warmups and is feeling well enough to suit up. Assuming his foot holds up, he should see a heavy dose of touches considering the ongoing absence of Tyjae Spears (hamstring), though both Julius Chestnut and Joshua Kelley are available to spell Pollard if required.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Trending toward playing Sunday
Tony Pollard remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, but the Tennessee Titans "feel good" about him and "anticipate he will play," Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.Pollard didn't practice at all this week, but he plans to test his injured foot out during a pregame workout Sunday, and if all goes well, he should get the green light to play. The fact that fellow running back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) has already been ruled out for Sunday makes Pollard's status more consequential for Tennessee, though the team did sign running back Joshua Kelley to the active roster off the practice squad Saturday. Julius Chestnut is the only other healthy running back on the roster.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Status up in air for Week 9
Tony Pollard (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Patriots.Pollard didn't practice at all this week due to a foot injury, but the Tennessee Titans are giving him a chance to play Sunday. The reasoning may be that fellow RB Tyjae Spears (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game, leaving Julius Chestnut as the lone healthy running back on the active roster and Joshua Kelley as a candidate to be elevated from the practice squad. Pollard's status will be clarified no later than 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Sits out second straight practice
Tony Pollard (foot) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, John Glennon of NashvillePost.com reports.Pollard's absence from practice for a second straight day due to the foot injury clouds his status for Sunday's game against the Patriots. The Tennessee Titans will see what, if anything, Pollard is able to do during Friday's session before determining his availability for the Week 9 contest. Pollard has taken on at least 18 touches in each of Tennessee's last four games, but if the foot issue keeps him out against New England or if he's available to take on only a limited workload, Tyjae Spears (hamstring), Julius Chestnut and practice-squad member Joshua Kelley would be candidates to take on more work out of the backfield.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Misses practice with foot injury
Tony Pollard sat out Wednesday's practice with a foot injury, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessee Titans' official site reports.The Titans provided no indication that Pollard was nursing an injury during Sunday's 52-14 loss at Detroit, as he took 24 touches for 117 yards while playing 80 percent of the snaps on offense. Even if the foot injury doesn't keep him from playing Week 9 against New England, Pollard faces a risk of his role being scaled back, as fellow running back Tyjae Spears (hamstring) managed a limited practice Wednesday after missing the past two games.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Strong showing against Lions

Titans' Tony Pollard: Inefficient against Bills
Tony Pollard rushed the ball 16 times for 61 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Bills. He added two receptions on six targets for four yards.As expected, Pollard dominated work out of Tennessee's backfield with Tyjae Spears (hamstring) sidelined, as he accounted for 16 of the 19 carries by running backs. However, he was scripted out of the game in the second half -- he had only three carries across the final two quarters -- and also struggled to get going as a receiver with Mason Rudolph under center. Pollard should continue to get plenty of work in Week 8, but a matchup against Detroit will provide him with another stout defense against the run.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Lone bright spot in loss
Tony Pollard rushed 17 times for 93 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for minus-5 yards in the Tennessee Titans' 20-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.On a day when Will Levis threw for under 100 yards, Pollard's production on the ground against the Colts' notoriously poor defense was the one bright spot for Tennessee. The veteran running back also recorded his third touchdown of the campaign on an impressive 23-yard run in the third quarter, helping Pollard to a new season high in rushing yardage. Pollard will next take aim at the Bills' defense in a Week 7 road matchup.

Titans' Tony Pollard: Heavy workload in Week 4 win
Tony Pollard rushed 22 times for 88 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 20 yards in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.Pollard set up the game's first touchdown with a 41-yard run, as Tyjae Spears ran it in from seven yards out on the next play. The former Cowboys running back scored one of his own from four yards out in the final minute, giving Pollard two touchdowns through four games with the Tennessee Titans. He finished with 22 carries to Spears' 15 as the Titans lost quarterback Will Levis to a shoulder injury early and went run-heavy against the offensively challenged Dolphins. After a Week 5 bye, Pollard should continue to operate as the 1A option in Tennessee's backfield, regardless of whether Levis or Mason Rudolph starts under center against the Colts in Week 6.
