The current season seems full of injuries! And we are not saying it just out of the blues. In every game, we see players walking off the gridiron with pain in their eyes. While some players experienced a season-ending serious injury, others might miss a few match-ups!

One such player who is expected to miss upcoming games is Tyjae Spears. The Titans running back broke down late in the face-off with the Jets, making everyone say Ouch! And that’s not all! Earlier this week, Brian Callahan mentioned the RB is considered “day-to-day” with his ankle injury. While it sounded like they’re taking it one step at a time, here’s a new update.

According to NFL Insider James Palmer’s post on X, even though Spears is listed as questionable, the head coach is confident that the Offensive Player of the Year will be ready to play. Callahan stated, “We’ll list Tjae at the moment. The injury report, as Robin said, is questionable. So anticipate him likely being ready to roll.” Seems like the team is optimistic about the running back hitting the field! But he also added how things are always uncertain!

Since things can go south, the Titans keep an eye on the situation. While they’re hopeful, it sounds like they’re prepared for anything. “But just you never know with those things when it comes to game day, how he feels,” he added. While the team is all set to face the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, will the Titans be able to win or will their ship sink?

How prepared are the Titans to play against the Packers while Tyjae Spears is injured?

Tyjae Spears’ ankle injury has left the Tennessee Titans facing some uncertainty as they prepare for upcoming games. The RB had been a key player, averaging around seven touches per game before getting hurt in Week 2 against the Jets. And that’s not all!

Spears has always been the talk of the town for his capability as a pass catcher. On top of that, he was the leading rusher for the Titans last season, gaining 129 carries for 863 yards. And guess what? He even scored nine touchdowns, along with 19 catches for 145 yards. Despite the injury, Tyjae is leaving no stone unturned to make a comeback!

The second-year running back even told reporters he’s planning to play in Week 3 against the Packers. And hitting the gridiron for practice on Thursday is definitely a step in the right direction. Looks like he’s gearing up to make it happen!

Now, with Spears listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Packers, the Titans are looking to Tony Pollard to take on a bigger role. Pollard, famous for his versatility in both rushing and receiving, is expected to step up as the lead running back. And even Pro Football Network’s Tony Catalina praised how Pollard and Spear could make a great duo. He said, “With his speed and shifty ability, Spears should be a complement to Pollard.”

Pollard’s expanded role could be critical as the Titans look to adjust and stay competitive, with their next game hinging on how they manage this change in their offensive approach. With so much going on in the Titans locker room, let’s see whether Tyjae Spears returns to the gridiron on Sunday or will the ankle injury take a toll on him!
