        It's true that Pollard wore down late last season, but we're filing this one under "believe it when we see it."

        Pollard should get plenty of touches in Week 1. The much bigger concern is the matchup in Denver against a stout Broncos defense. The Titans are implied for a week-low 17.25 points.

        Don't expect a ceiling outing from Pollard in this spot. But he's a fine volume-based RB2 starter in Week 1 fantasy lineups.
