Impact Tucker came into the afternoon with just three total touches on the season, but the second-year back exploded for a team-high rushing yardage total while technically serving as the No. 2 back behind Bucky Irving. A two-time 1,000-yard rusher in college, Tucker first found the end zone on an impressive 36-yard catch and run in the second quarter, and he added the first rushing score of his career via a five-yard rush coming out of the two-minute warning. Tucker's explosive showing would theoretically earn him more playing time on many teams, but with Irving and Rachaad White (foot), whose absence Sunday opened the door for Tucker's expanded role, firmly entrenched atop the depth chart, that could prove difficult. However, were White to remain sidelined for a Week 7 home showdown against the Ravens on Monday night, Oct. 21, Tucker would be line for another robust role in that contest.

Impact Bucky Irving, who's already been working in close to an even timeshare with White at times, will draw the start, but he's yet to log more than 10 carries in a game during his nascent NFL career. Therefore, Tucker, who normally slots in as the No. 3 back on the depth chart, should be in line for his biggest workload of the season as Irving's backup, after only seeing two carries and one target over his first five games. Tucker has worked primarily as a kickoff returner thus far this season and had just 17 touches across 11 regular-season games as a rookie in 2023, but he was a two-time 1,000-yard rusher during his college days at Syracuse.

OCTOBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to kickoff returns in loss Tucker returned two kickoffs for 86 yards in the Buccaneers' 36-30 overtime loss to the Falcons on Thursday night.

Impact Tucker didn't log any snaps on offense for the first two since Week 2, although he showed well with his pair of opportunities to touch the ball on special teams. The second-year back looks destined to continue as a distant No. 3 option behind the high-usage duo of Rachaad White and Bucky Irving as long as those two versatile options are healthy.

OCTOBER 4, 2024 • BUCCANEERS.COM

Logs two touches in win Tucker rushed once for three yards and brought in his only target for 14 yards in the Buccaneers' 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Tucker logged a season-high six snaps from scrimmage and logged his first reception of the season in the process. The second-year back continues to play his largest role on special teams, as opportunities behind Rachaad White and Bucky Irving will continue to be scarce as long as the duo is healthy.

OCTOBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Plays minor role in Week 3 loss Tucker rushed once for four yards and returned one kickoff for 27 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Impact Tucker did log a carry on his only snap from scrimmage, and he put in another 13 on special teams. Tucker's cameo on offense at least represented an improvement from a Week 2 win over the Lions where he never saw the field in that capacity, but the second-year back doesn't seem to have a path to any meaningful playing time as long as Rachaad White and Bucky Irving are healthy.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

No offensive touches in Week 1 win Tucker did not log any touches from scrimmage in the Buccaneers' 37-20 win over the Commanders on Sunday, but he returned one kickoff for 22 yards.

Impact The Buccaneers' No. 3 running back was limited to two snaps from scrimmage and eight on special teams in the comfortable victory. Top two running backs Rachaad White and Bucky Irving monopolized the backfield opportunities in the victory, and that could well continue to be the case as long as the talented duo is healthy. Tucker's returner role could offer some value in deep leagues that factor in related statistics, however.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Strong finish to preseason Tucker rushed seven times for 20 yards and brought in his only target for a 27-yard gain in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.

Impact Tucker led the Buccaneers in carries on the night while checking in second to Bucky Irving in rushing yardage, while also making a splash play on his one reception. Tucker didn't enter the game until the final possession of the first half, but he's shown well overall this preseason and should be a relative certainty for a roster spot with Chase Edmonds (undisclosed) seemingly headed to injured reserve to open the campaign.

Impact Tucker was the second running back to log a carry behind Bucky Irving, and he outgained his teammate by six yards with two fewer carries. Tucker also was effective as a returner, and with 100 rushing yards on 14 carries through two preseason contests, he appears well on his way to securing the No. 3 running back job over Chase Edmonds (undisclosed).

AUGUST 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impresses in preseason opener Tucker rushed 10 times for 68 yards and brought in both targets for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 preseason win over the Bengals on Saturday.

Impact Tucker had both the game's longest run (26 yards) and a team-high rushing yardage tally, getting his latest quest for a roster spot off to a noteworthy start. The 2023 undrafted free agent was able to beat the odds a year ago by appearing in 11 regular-season games, although he did not log a touch after Week 3. Tucker offers some explosiveness and is serviceable as a receiver, so he could certainly find his way back on the 53-man with a combination of a strong preseason and the prolonged absence of Chase Edmonds (undisclosed).

AUGUST 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Beats odds as UDFA Tucker was active for 11 regular-season games in the 2023 season, rushing 15 times for 23 yards and bringing in both his targets for nine yards.

Impact Tucker parlayed an impressive college career at Syracuse that he capped off with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons into a training camp invite, and he then earned his way onto the 53-man roster with an impressive summer showing. However, Tucker was unsurprisingly used sparingly once the regular season began, as three-down lead back Rachaad White enjoyed good health throughout the campaign. Tucker recorded all his touches from scrimmage in the first three weeks of the season while Chase Edmonds was on IR with a knee injury, and he logged just one Week 10 snap on offense the rest of the season. Tucker was a healthy scratch from Week 15 through the Buccaneers' two-game postseason, but as he enters the second season of his three-year rookie deal in 2024, he should have a chance to compete for the No. 2 role with Edmonds a pending free agent that may not be brought back.

FEBRUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Suits up, fails to play vs. Packers Tucker was active for Sunday's game against the Packers but didn't play any snaps on offense or special teams in the Buccaneers' 34-20 win.

Impact Tampa Bay made use of just two running backs on the day, with starter Rachaad White playing 81 percent of the snaps and Chase Edmonds taking the field for the remaining 19 percent. With Tampa Bay recently letting Ke'Shawn Vaughn go, Tucker looks secure as the Bucs' No. 3 back, but that role is unlikely to translate into much meaningful playing time or fantasy value while both White and Edmonds are available. For the season, Tucker is averaging a paltry 1.5 yards on 15 carries to go with two catches for nine yards over 11 appearances.
