Game Info
Kickoff: Sunday, October 18, 2026, 1:00 PM ET
Location: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
Network: FOX
Tennessee Titans
Quarterback
Cam Ward: SIT
Running Back
Tony Pollard: START, RB2
Tyjae Spears: FLEX
It says something in regard to the state of the running back that Tony Pollard is an RB2 this week. With injuries, byes, and busts running rampant (here’s looking at you, Omarion Hampton), Pollard and his 14 carries per game facing the fifth-best matchup in the Colts looks… exciting-ish? Pollard isn’t doing anything well, forcing a missed tackle at a 44th-ranked 0.09 per attempt rate. What’s working in his favor, however, is that the Colts are giving up 52.8 receiving yards through the air to the position, the league high. Pollard had seen eight targets over weeks three and four, but it was Tyjae Spears that saw nine last week. Spears is dealing with a knee issue that has had him limited at practice, but if he’s able to go, he’s a risky FLEX play considering he came into Week 5 with seven total targets on the season.
Wide Receiver
Carnell Tate: START, WR3
Wan’Dale Robinson: START, WR3
Elic Ayomanor: SIT
Both Carnell Tate and Wan’Dale Robinson are startable despite the Colts being a middling matchup. Tate has the much higher ceiling considering he equates for nearly 49% of the team’s air yards. But if the Titans are able to find the red zone, it’s Robinson that has more targets inside the 20.
Tight End
Gunnar Helm: SIT
You had as many fantasy points as Gunnar Helm last week.
Defense/Special Teams
Tennessee Titans: SIT
The Titans have two forced turnovers this season.
Indianapolis Colts
Quarterback
Daniel Jones: SIT
Daniel Jones hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass since Week 3, and has one more interception thrown this season than scores. Tennessee has allowed just five passing touchdowns all season, so don’t expect Jones to get off the schnide in Week 6. He’s a sit until further notice, sporting one of the league’s worst yards per attempt at 5.8.
Running Back
Jonathan Taylor: START, RB1
Seth McGowan: SIT
Dj Giddens: SIT
Yeah, you’re starting Jonathan Taylor. If baseball has a Jonathan Taylor, it’s José Ramírez. Both are bona fide superstars who still get talked about like they’re a tier below the superstars of their sport. Then the season ends, you check the leaderboard, and there they are again at the top of the league.
Wide Receiver
Josh Downs: START, WR3
Keenan Allen: START, WR3
Laquon Treadwell: SIT
The Titans are a decent matchup for wide receivers, allowing the 11th-most points and 10 completions of 20+ yards this season. But Josh Downs is being bothered by a bum hammy and coming off back-to-back games under eight points. Keenan Allen has a 6.5 aDOT, ranking just a few numbers higher than his age at 92. Both are startable in a shallow week missing four teams to byes, but the floor is of a trap variety.
Tight End
Tyler Warren: START, TE1
Tyler Warren is coming off his best game of the season and currently sits as the TE6. The Titans aren’t a great matchup, but Warren’s seen seven or more targets in three of five games and over nine in two of his last three.
Defense/Special Teams
Indianapolis Colts: STREAMER
The Colts defense isn’t good, but neither is the Titans offense.
