Relegated to special teams again Week 9
Tucker didn't log any offensive snaps in a loss to the Bears on Sunday. He returned four kickoffs for 92 yards.
It was the second straight week in which Tucker went without an offensive snap. That's happened despite Tampa Bay going to the ground plenty during that span. Perhaps not coincidentally, Tucker has begun working as a kick returner during the two-game stretch. It appears he's not going to get many opportunities on offense as long as Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell are healthy.
