The 1-6 Tennessee Titans need to be sellers at the upcoming NFL trade deadline (Nov. 4). Chad Brinker and Mike Borgonzi believe in rebuilding the roster through the draft. Additional draft capital could help them accelerate that process.
One of their most intriguing bargaining chips is running back Tony Pollard. The veteran ball-carrier is a quality playmaker stuck on a horrific offense. With so many injuries impacting backfields around the league, Pollard could garner interest with the deadline fast approaching.
Pollard could help improve the offense of a postseason contender. With one year remaining on a modest contract, multiple suitors could inquire about his availabiity. There's one team in particular who sticks out, with others potentially joining the fray.
Titans RB Tony Pollard could garner interest from the following potential suitors at the NFL trade deadline
Los Angeles Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers stick out as the best overall fit for Pollard. For whatever reason, the organization is obsessed with former Titans. They currently roster eight ex-Titans. Furthermore, rookie running back Omarion Hampton is on IR, and the combination of Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal aren't solutions.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals rank dead-last in rushing, averaging just 68.9 ground yards per game. Trading for quarterback Joe Flacco has given their postseason chances new life with Joe Burrow recovering from a multi-month injury. With the offense performing better under Flacco's leadership, the Bengals could make a move that boosts their productivity as Burrow starts nearing a return.
Kansas City Chiefs
Andy Reid's offense isn't running the ball with any consistency. Karrem Hunt is an aging past-his-prime asset, and Isiah Pacheco has scored one rushing touchdown for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2025. The Chiefs need to field a more well-balanced offense if they're to contend for a Super Bowl, and Pollard would help them achieve that goal.
