Titans' Run Game: Love at 4th Pick, Pollard's Role

0:00On March 25th, the first wave of NFL free agency for 2026 is done, and the Tennessee Titans made some smart moves with their cap space. They added Germaine Johnson at edge-resher, but lost ardent key to the Colts. Still, gaps remain, like no clear starters at RyGuard or Center on the offensive line, and a running back room that needs work heading into the draft. The Titans could cut Tony Pollard before June 1st to free up $7.5 million in cap space, but they have not pulled the trigger. Yet, that leaves Pollard and TaiJay Spears as the main duo, which feels risky after last season's shaky run game. Fans and analysts point out the ground attack struggled most of the year, only picking up steam in December. Pollard hit over 1,000 rushing yards for the four straight season, while Spears shown in breaking tackles after catches, tying for the league, lead despite fewer touches. But Spears' injury history means he cannot handle a full starter load. Now, with free agency options thinning, the draft looks like the best bet for upgrades.
