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. 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.

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. Tucker led the Buccaneers in carries on the night while checking in second to Bucky Irving in rushing yardage, 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 due to Chase Edmonds (undisclosed) likely being headed to injured reserve to open the campaign.

Tucker rushed four times for 32 yards and brought in his only target for one yard in the Buccaneers' 20-7 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday night. He also returned two kickoffs for 55 yards. 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).

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. 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).

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. Though he wasn't chosen in the 2023 NFL Draft, Tucker parlayed a productive college career at Syracuse that he capped off with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons into a three-year deal with the Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent. After an impressive summer showing, Tucker earned his way onto the 53-man roster. 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 injured reserve with a knee injury, and the former logged just one Week 10 snap on offense the rest of the season. Tucker was a healthy inactive from Week 15 through the Buccaneers' two-game postseason run, but as he enters the second season in Tampa Bay, he should have a chance to compete for the No. 2 role. Edmonds is a pending free agent and may not be retained.
