The Tennessee Titans will host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Tyjae Spears.
Is Tyjae Spears Playing in Week 13?
Spears is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Titans’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Spears in Week 13?
Annually we get these players that fantasy managers think more of than their real world employers and it’s frustrating.
There aren’t a ton of them this year, but Tyjae Spears is certainly on that list as the Titans either fear that he can’t handle extended work or won’t produce if given to it.
I think it almost has to be the former, as the latter is already happening by way of Tony Pollard.
We can complain about it all we want, but that’s not going to change anything. Spears has at least three catches in six straight and if you think the Jags can take a lead, maybe there’s a path where he earns 5-7 targets to hit PPR lineups, but you’re drawing thin given the declining usage in the passing game (carry count over his past four games: 9-7-4-3).
