Sean Tucker, RB (TB)

Nursing quad injury

Home  >  News

Tucker did not participate in Wednesday's practice session due to a quadriceps injury.

Tucker may have picked up the injury during the Buccaneers' Week 5 win over the Cowboys, when he played seven offensive snaps and logged five carries for 18 yards. He'll have two more chances to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Tampa Bay's next contest against Pittsburgh on Sunday. Even if he is available, Tucker profiles as the Bucs' RB3 behind Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell.
