Raiders' Tre Tucker: Limited to three catches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker secured three of four targets for 28 yards and rushed once for seven yards in the Raiders' 34-19 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Tucker tied several teammates for third in receptions, but as has been the norm this season, he couldn't parlay his modest opportunities into much production. The speedy Tucker has been over 41 receiving yards just once this season -- he posted a season-high 96 yards against the Panthers in Week 3 -- as he continues to serve as a clear tertiary target in an air attack typically led by star rookie tight end Brock Bowers and veteran wideout Jakobi Meyers. Tucker's next opportunity to improve his numbers isn't exactly an inviting one, as he'll face a talented Broncos secondary in a Week 12 home matchup.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Five yards on six targets in loss
Rotowire
Tucker caught two of six targets for five yards in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Bengals.
Tucker is playing nearly every offensive snap for the Raiders since the Davante Adams trade, but the 23-year-old speedster has averaged just 3.9 yards per target over the past three weeks. A potential quarterback change from Gardner Minshew to Desmond Ridder doesn't lend Tucker any significant boost in projection following a Week 10 bye, while Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers continue to emerge as the team's top two receiving threats.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Two catches in loss to Kansas City
Rotowire
Tucker caught two of three targets for 26 yards and he rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Kansas City.
Tucker led Las Vegas' wideouts with a 91 percent snap share, but Jakobi Meyers and DJ Turner provided much more fantasy utility as they combined for 10 receptions on 11 targets for 80 yards and two touchdowns. Tucker figures to remain busy from a playing-time perspective against the Bengals in Week 9, but the second-year wideout hasn't caught more than three passes in a game since Week 4.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Eight targets in Week 7 loss
Rotowire
Tucker caught three of eight targets for 36 yards and added an 11-yard rush in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams.
Tucker finished second on the team in targets and receiving yards, though Brock Bowers easily led the team with 14 and 93, respectively. Davante Adams is a Jet now and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sat out a second consecutive game, leaving Tucker as the top available option in Vegas' underwhelming wide receiver room. Aidan O'Connell (thumb) exited in the first half, so it remains to be seen whether Tucker will have O'Connell or Gardner Minshew throwing him the ball in Week 8 against the Chiefs.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Zero catches in loss
Rotowire
Tucker failed to haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
Tucker was on the field for 60 of a possible 63 offensive snaps with fellow receivers Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but the 23-year-old speedster was unable to connect with quarterback Aidan O'Connell in the latter's first start of the season. Meanwhile, rookie tight end Brock Bowers continued to impress as he led all Raiders pass catchers with a 9-71-0 receiving line on 10 targets. An easier matchup awaits Tucker against the Rams in Week 7, but his low floor remains a concern.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Week 6 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
With the Raiders set to trade Davante Adams, that should allow Tucker to be the No. 2 receiver in Las Vegas opposite Jakobi Meyers, and Tucker is worth adding in all leagues for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB. He had a down game in Week 5 at Denver with two catches for 18 yards on five targets, but prior to that, he scored at least 15.4 PPR points in each of his two previous outings against Carolina and Cleveland, with 15 targets over that span. He's headed for a big role, and Tucker can emerge as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver once Adams is gone.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Five catches, rushing TD in win
Rotowire
Tucker caught five of six targets for 41 yards and added a three-yard rushing touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns.
Tucker tied Jakobi Meyers for the team lead in catches, and while he was eight yards and four targets shy of Meyers' totals as a receiver, Tucker more than made up for that with a three-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. Tucker had 96 yards and a touchdown in the Week 3 loss to the Panthers, but most of that production came with the game out of hand, so it was encouraging to see him remain heavily involved from the get-go in Sunday's competitive win. Tucker should continue to play a larger role in Week 5 against the Broncos if Davante Adams (hamstring) remains sidelined.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Expected to start in Week 4
Rotowire
Tucker is expected to take on a starting role in Sunday's game against the Browns after Davante Adams (hamstring) was ruled out, Levi Damien of USA Today reports.
Tucker is coming off a big game last week against Carolina in which he logged a 7-96-1 line on nine targets with the Raiders chasing points all afternoon. The second-year wideout now will have a chance to build on that performance as the likely No. 1 downfield option on the outside with Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers working the middle of the field. Tucker has shown his ceiling, but he also has a scary-low floor for fantasy purposes.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Pair of catches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught both of his targets for 13 yards and he returned three punts for 16 yards in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Ravens.
Tucker has posted a disappointing 4-35-0 receiving line on five total targets through the Raiders' first two contests despite relatively pass-friendly situations, and he continues to take a back seat to Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers in the pecking order for looks from quarterback Gardner Minshew. On a more positive note, Tucker's 69 percent offensive snap share through two weeks is trending in the right direction.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Big gains Saturday
Rotowire
Tucker caught two of four targets for 73 yards in Saturday's 24-23 preseason loss to the Vikings. He also added 23 yards on one punt return.
Davante Adams got the night off, leaving Jakobi Meyers and Tucker as the Raiders' starting wideouts, and the latter wound up leading the team in receiving yards thanks to gains of 29 and 44 yards on successive second-quarter touchdown drives with Gardner Minshew under center. Tucker has drawn plenty of praise from the coaching staff in camp, and the 2023 third-round pick could be headed for a breakout campaign if he can earn enough volume in a passing game that also has to find targets for tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Flashes big-play ability as rookie
Rotowire
Tucker caught all five of his targets for a season-high 79 yards in the Raiders' Week 18 win over the Broncos, ultimately finishing the 2023 campaign with 19 receptions for 331 yards and two touchdowns on 34 targets in 16 games. He also rushed 10 times for 77 yards.
Tucker was a healthy scratch in the Raiders' season opener despite being selected with the 100th overall pick in last April's draft, but the rookie took his first NFL touch for 34 yards on a jet sweep against the Bills in Week 2, and he eventually recorded six receptions of 20-plus yards throughout the team's final 12 games. Tucker became the preferred No. 3 option at wide receiver behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers as the season wore on, beating out Hunter Renfrow for playing time down the stretch. Tucker's speed and big-play ability are evident heading into 2024, but more competent quarterback play also could arrive in Las Vegas this offseason.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Two touches Monday
Rotowire
Tucker caught his only target for a loss of four yards in Monday's 20-14 win over the Chiefs. He also rushed once for five yards.
Tucker's regression after posting a 3-59-2 line against the Chargers in Week 15 came as no surprise, but the rookie still managed to play twice as many offensive snaps (22) as veteran Hunter Renfrow (11) on Christmas Day. A similar split behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers is likely against the Colts in Week 17, as the Raiders continue developing Tucker.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Notches first two NFL touchdowns
Rotowire
Tucker caught three of four targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 63-21 win over the Chargers. He also lost two yards on his only rushing attempt.
Tucker contributed to the Raiders' blowout victory by catching a pair of 20-plus yard touchdown passes in the first half, which also marked his first two NFL scores. The rookie logged just three offensive snaps against Minnesota in Week 14, but he was on the field for 29 plays Thursday compared to 27 for fellow wide receiver Hunter Renfrow. However, it's unlikely that a Week 16 matchup versus the Chiefs involves a similar game script.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Career-high seven targets Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught two passes for 36 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Dolphins.
Tucker finished Sunday's contest behind only Davante Adams in targets from quarterback Aidan O'Connell, with the rookie wideout earning seven looks on just 24 offensive snaps. The career-high seven targets translated to just two receptions, however, one of which came on the Raiders' final drive of the game. Tucker has flashed big-play ability, but he's difficult to trust against a stingy Chiefs secondary in Las Vegas' Week 12 matchup.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Not targeted in loss
Rotowire
Tucker failed to record a single target in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.
After playing 48 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps in Week 7, Tucker's playing time took a major hit in Week 8 as he played just 13 percent of snaps Monday. The rookie wideout was not a part of the game plan, with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo failing to connect with the speedster on any of his six snaps. With limited usage on a struggling offense, Tucker should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Raiders host the Giants in Week 9.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Catches 48-yard deep ball Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught both of his targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Patriots. He also rushed once for four yards.
Tucker not only logged a season-high 22 offensive snaps, but the speedy rookie also got behind the Patriots secondary on a 48-yard reception to flip the field on a third-down conversion in the second half. Although Tucker has earned just four total targets through the first five games of his NFL career, fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow was hardly involved Sunday with seven snaps of his own, so Tucker's expanded role behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers could stick for the Raiders' road trip to Chicago in Week 7.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Gets green light
Rotowire
Tucker (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official website reports.
Tucker logged consecutive limited practices to kick off the week after injuring his knee in Monday's 17-13 victory over the Packers. However, he put in a full day's work Friday and was held off the team's final injury report as a result. Barring any setbacks, he is set to provide depth at receiver while primarily contributing on special teams.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Receives two touches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker had one reception (three targets) for three yards and one carry for three yards in Sunday's 34-7 preseason win over San Francisco.
Tucker didn't get to put his wheels on display, but he was able to show off his dual-threat ability on a jet sweep attempt. The third-round rookie is looking to make the team as a gadget wideout and return man. Tucker will look to have more success with his touches in the Raiders' next preseason matchup against the Rams on Saturday.
