Tony Pollard
RB
Tennessee Titans▲ Hot
- Teammate Carnell Tate (a top target) is out, so Pollard may see more targets.
A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.
This is how RBs have played against the Browns in the 2026 season.
RB1 = the highest-scoring RB against Browns in each game, not a fixed depth-chart spot.

How Tony Pollard should do vs the BrownsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Browns, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Tony Pollard has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Browns opponents to line them up with: the best RB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Tony Pollard will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Browns avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Tony Pollard's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Tony Pollard usually produces.
Projected is Tony Pollard's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Browns were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.

| Difference | +1.5 | +9.6 | -0.6 | +0.7 | +0.6 | +5.6 | +0.0 | -1.7 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Pollard averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Prediction & chance to scoreTony Pollard vs the Browns
Prediction for Tony Pollard
Nobody knows which slot Tony Pollard will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Browns.
I predict about 8.0 points for Tony Pollard if playing as a RB1. Tony Pollard has averaged 8.6 over 6 games, and the Browns have given up 12.8 to RB1s (-19% vs the league average of 15.8).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Tony Pollard scored: Wk 1 4.4, Wk 2 7.5, Wk 3 13.6, Wk 4 13.0, Wk 5 5.2, Wk 6 7.6. Average 8.6; weighted toward recent games it is 9.1.
2. The defense. Over 6 games, the Browns allowed 12.8 points to their opponent's RB1. The league average for that slot is 15.8, so that is -19%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 6 defensive games, only 67% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -13% adjustment (x0.87).
4. Result. 9.1 x 0.87 = 8.0. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Tony Pollard is to reach it as a RB1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (8.0) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 3.9 points, leaning on Tony Pollard's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical RB swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 8.
With only 6 games of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table
- RB1s have averaged 18.2 carries, 84.0 rushing yards and 2.3 receptions against the Browns across 6 games.
- The Browns allow 12.8 PPR points to RB1s, -19% versus the league average of 15.8 (ranked 26 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a tough matchup.
- Outlier: Week 6, Derrick Henry (5.0 pts) sits far below the other games and drags the averages down. Average with it vs without it: pts 12.8 vs 14.4. The table above keeps the raw averages.
- 4 of 6 games reached 10+ PPR points. Scores range from 5.0 to 18.6 (median 14.0).
- Every RB1 in the sample cleared 50 rushing yards.
- RB1s scored a touchdown in 1 of 6 games (17%).
