  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Finds end zone in MNF win

    Spears rushed 15 times for 39 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for zero yards in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.

    Spears scored a seven-yard touchdown on a direct snap in the third quarter. He finished with seven fewer carries than Tony Pollard, who rushed 22 times for 88 yards and a touchdown of his own. Both running backs got robust workloads as Tennessee's running game benefited from a positive game script, but Pollard continues to see about a 60/40 edge in touches over Spears. That distribution is unlikely to change Week 6 against the Colts after Tennessee's Week 5 bye.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Effective as pass catcher

    Spears rushed the ball two times for seven yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers. He added four receptions on four targets for 54 yards.

    Spears was active despite being on the injury report throughout the week due to an ankle injury. He had only seven yards from scrimmage and no catches at halftime, though he managed to spark a touchdown drive with a 29-yard catch midway through the third quarter. Spears remains firmly behind Tony Pollard in opportunity out of the Tennessee backfield.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Active as expected

    Spears (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Spears injured his ankle during the Titans' Week 2 loss to the Jets, but he ramped up his practice activity throughout the week. He ultimately practiced in full Friday, suggesting he won't face significant limitations against the Packers. Despite the ankle injury, Spears saw an increase in his workload against the Jets, tallying six carries and eight total touches. Tony Pollard should still serve as Tennessee's lead back.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Likely to suit up Week 3

    Spears (ankle) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday versus Green Bay, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Spears injured his ankle in a Week 2 loss to the Jets and sat out the Titans' first Week 3 practice Wednesday before upgrading to limited participation Thursday and then full activity Friday. His ability to take every rep in Friday's session seemingly sets the stage for him to play Sunday, though he won't be officially cleared until Tennessee releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Spears should continue to back up Tony Pollard at running back after totaling 41 yards on 10 carries plus 22 yards on six receptions through the first two weeks of the campaign.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Questionable despite full practice

    Spears (ankle) practiced fully Friday but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Spears and coach Brian Callahan both expressed optimism throughout the week that the running back would be available Sunday, and Spears' full participation Friday is further evidence in that direction, though there's still doubt hanging over his head due to the questionable designation. If Spears is cleared to suit up Sunday, he presumably will continue to cede the majority of backfield touches to Tony Pollard, who has 43 combined carries and targets through two weeks to Spears' 16.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Questionable for Sunday

    Spears (ankle) is slated to be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Spears didn't practice Wednesday but returned to a limited session a day later, and per Turron Davenport of ESPN.com, coach Brian Callahan expects the running back to be available this weekend. If that ends up being the case, Spears would be in line to continue to work alongside Tony Pollard in the Titans' Week 3 backfield.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Back at practice

    Spears (ankle) returned to practice Thursday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    Spears didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field a day later isn't surprising, given his previous assertion that he'd be available Sunday against the Packers, per John Glennon of NashvillePost.com. That notion would be further solidified if Spears is listed as a full participant in Thursday's session.

  • Titans' Tyjae Spears: Logs limited practice

    Spears (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday.

    Spears, who didn't practice Wednesday, has expressed confidence that he'll be able to play Sunday against the Packers. Still, he'll probably need to practice fully Friday in order to avoid a Week 3 injury designation. Assuming the running back is available this weekend, offensive coordinator Nick Holz said Thursday that he hopes to get both Spears and Tony Pollard involved moving forward in a timeshare that could result in the two seeing close to even snap counts, according to Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site.
