Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears is expected to suit up for the Week 3 matchup against the Green Bay Packers despite dealing with an ankle injury. After a DNP/LP/FP progression in practice leading up to the game, Spears seems ready to back up Tony Pollard, who has been the primary ball-carrier for the Titans. Spears has shown promise in the early part of the season, contributing both in rushing and receiving.
