Pollard will have a chance to easily pace the Titans backfield against Cincinnati on Sunday due to the absence of Tyjae Spears (knee), Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Pollard enters the weekend on the heels of the best performance of his career with the Titans, when he turned 25 carries into 129 yards and three touchdowns and added three catches (on as many targets) for 26 yards in a Week 7 loss to the Browns. Cincinnati's defense gives up 116.3 rushing yards per game (19th in the NFL), but the unit likely will hone in more on Pollard given Spears and even rookie WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) are sidelined.

Pollard carried the ball 25 times for 129 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Browns. He also caught all three of his targets for 26 yards.

The veteran running back was almost the entire offense for the Titans as he took advantage of the absence of Tyjae Spears (knee) from the backfield, scoring TDs of 36 and 10 yards in the first quarter before adding a one-yard plunge in the fourth. The rushing yards total was Pollard's best effort since Week 14 of last season, and it was his first three-touchdown performance since Week 8 of the 2022 campaign when he was still a Cowboy. Pollard has 478 rushing yards and four TDs through seven games, and he'll keeping matching toward his fifth straight 1,000-yard season in Week 8 against the Bengals.

Pollard carried the ball 19 times for 76 yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Colts.

Tyjae Spears had only two touches as Pollard dominated work in the Titans backfield, and the veteran RB led the team in scrimmage yards on the afternoon. Pollard's 76 rushing yards were a season high, but he's gotten into the end zone just once in six games. He'll offer a solid floor, but little ceiling, in a Week 7 matchup against the Browns.

Tucker agreed Wednesday to sign with Kansas City's practice squad, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Though Harrison Butker is expected to retain the Chiefs' kicking job heading into Sunday's game in Denver, he's lost some job security after missing six kicks (five field goals, one extra point) through the team's first six games. Kansas City worked out three kickers this week and ultimately settled on bringing aboard Tucker as an insurance option on the practice squad. A seven-time Pro Bowl selection, the 36-year-old Tucker hasn't seen NFL action since the 2024 season, when he connected on just 73.3 percent of his field-goal attempts as a member of the Ravens.
