Pollard was a surprise addition to the injury report on Wednesday, and it was widely assumed that it was just a veteran’s rest day. A second-straight missed practice on Thursday raised eyebrows heading into the weekend, though, and it’ll be important to pay attention now to the injury report later on today to confirm Pollard’s status against the Bengals. Pollard has played through injuries already this season and is taking on a heavy workload for Tennessee, so even a limited practice today would be reassuring enough for us to assume he’ll be good to go come Sunday. However, if he’s not able to go, Tyjae Spears could be in for a larger workload than usual – but he likely wouldn’t take on a workhorse role like Pollard does. Should Pollard miss practice again today, there would be serious questions regarding his availability going into the first round of the fantasy playoffs – but the final determination on his status would likely be made shortly before kickoff on Sunday if it would get to that point. Stay tuned.
