The Patriots can't overlook their struggling backfield in the weeks leading up to the 2026 trade deadline.

Musket Fire argues that the New England Patriots should target Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard ahead of the upcoming trade deadline. Writer Sara Marshall notes that Pollard's strong Week 7 display makes him an ideal candidate to bolster New England's stagnant rushing attack alongside Rhamondre Stevenson, especially amid TreVeyon Henderson's recent struggles.
Pollard rushed for 129 yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries against the Cleveland Browns, bringing his season total to 474 yards. Marshall suggests the rebuilding Titans could trade Pollard for a projected mid-round draft pick, though front-office tensions regarding former coach Mike Vrabel could pose a potential obstacle.
