        Sean Tucker Forcing Way into Backfield Plan

        By Matt Schauf | Updated on Mon, Oct 14 2024 6:07 PM UTC

        Buccaneers RB Sean Tucker had 53 total yards for his young NFL career before Sunday's game. But then he racked up a 14-136-1 rushing line and 3-56-1 receiving in the offensive explosion against the Saints. What's that mean for when RB Rachaad White returns from injury? HC Todd Bowles says the second-year back has earned a spot in the rotation.

        What They're Saying

        Bowles: "It's definitely worthy of him making it a three-headed monster."

        Fantasy managers hate that phrase, because it means unpredictable touch distributions.

        Tucker's emergence is obviously bad news for White, who was already the less-efficient of the backfield's two existing "heads." It's also not great for anyone hoping that rookie Bucky Irving would turn into a weekly fantasy starter.

        We'll see exactly how this situation works out once all three are healthy. But the crowd lowers everyone's floor and ceiling.

        A Week 7 matchup with Baltimore at least makes for an unattractive spot to play any Bucs RB.
