The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the New England Patriots in Week 10. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Sean Tucker.
Is Tucker Playing in Week 10?
Tucker is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Buccaneers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Tucker in Week 10?
Despite missed time from Bucky Irving and inefficiencies in the two-down sense from Rachaad White, Sean Tucker has had one game with more than six touches this season and is pretty firmly an afterthought for this coaching staff.
You can reasonably hold until we get proof that Irving is close to full strength, but you don’t need to. There isn’t a clean path to Tucker hitting your lineup, and at this point in the season, that means he’s on the chopping block should depth issues arise.
This offense is dealing with all sorts of injuries, and that opens up opportunities, but I’d rather throw darts at the pass game than pray for work on the ground.
