Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears will be placed on injured reserve as he works his way back from a high-ankle sprain, ESPN reported Tuesday.
The move will keep Spears off the field for at least the first four games of the season for the Titans.
Spears, who was spotted this week in a walking boot. sustained the injury on Aug. 9 during Tennessee's 29-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a preseason game.
The Titans likely will rely on running back Julius Chestnut to provide support for starter Tony Pollard.
Spears, 24, rushed for 312 yards and four touchdowns and added 30 catches for 224 yards and one score in 12 games (one start) last season for Tennessee.
He has rushed for 765 yards and six touchdowns in 29 career games (two starts) since being selected by the Titans in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Tulane.
