23-Year-Old Running BackRB
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Health concerns regarding a heart condition caused Tucker to go undrafted in 2023, but his performance at Syracuse hinted at a potentially productive NFL career. Instead, he was nearly invisible as a rookie behind Rachaad White in the Buccaneers' backfield, and once Chase Edmonds got healthy, almost all of Tucker's snaps came on special teams. He lacks the skills to contribute on passing downs, but Tucker's balance, power and elusiveness should allow him to gain yards after contact. Tampa Bay drafted Bucky Irving in the fourth round in 2024, making Tucker's path to a roster spot even tougher. Read Past Outlooks

Finishes season quietly

January 13, 2025
Tucker, who was active but did not log any snaps in Sunday night's 23-20 wild-card loss to the Commanders, finished the 2024 regular season with 50 carries for 308 yards and two touchdowns, a 9-109-1 line on 12 targets, 410 kickoff-return yards and one fumble, which remained with Tampa Bay, across 17 games.
ANALYSIS
The second-year running back established new career-high figures across the board, with the highlight of his season coming in a Week 6 win over the Saints where he posted 14 carries for 136 yards and a touchdown while adding three receptions for 56 yards and another score. Tucker continued to see sporadic opportunities throughout the season and flashed plenty of his trademark explosiveness, and he could be set to see another increase in opportunity in his 2025 contract year, perhaps at the occasional expense of Rachaad White behind starter Bucky Irving.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Tucker makes for a high-pedigree undrafted free agent, as he racked up 2,556 rushing yards, 509 receiving yards and 27 total touchdowns over his last two seasons at Syracuse. The compactly built rookie (5-9, 207) should have his fair share of reps during training camp and preseason games, but he'll have no shortage of competition for a depth running back role considering the presence of holdovers Ke'Shawn Vaughn and Patrick Laird, as well as fellow UDFA Ronnie Brown.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be thrust into larger role
RBTampa Bay Buccaneers
September 28, 2024
Tucker may see a significant uptick in offensive snaps due to both Rachaad White and Bucky Irving being listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Irving was limited in two practices and a DNP in another this week due to a hamstring injury, while White was added to Saturday's injury report due to an illness, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Tucker has played just three offensive snaps this season and turned his lone carry into four yards, but the undrafted rookie could be in line for significant playing time if White and/or Irving were unable to play Sunday.
