Why Robert Saleh has praised Tony Pollard since taking over the Titans job

Saleh’s praise for Pollard has become a talking point since taking over Titans duties, highlighting the veteran back’s professionalism and production. Pollard, who turned 29 in April, posted a career-best 1,082 rushing yards last season, and discussions around the draft led some to speculate on Jeremiyah Love joining Tennessee, though Arizona picked Love one slot ahead. Saleh recalled Pollard’s Week 15 performance against his former defense, praising him as an ‘unbelievable pro’ who brings energy and detail to every rep. Pollard’s durability is underscored by four straight 1,000-yard seasons and just five missed games in seven years, with 260 carries in his first Titans season illustrating his workload.
