Who Should I Start? Cam Akers or Sean Tucker

Wednesday, November 26, 1:47 PM

The Seattle Seahawks are signing free-agent running back Cam Akers to their active 53-man roster on Wednesday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Akers, 26, spent time with the Minnesota Vikings this season and will now join the 8-3 Seahawks for RB depth. The Seahawks are facing the Vikings in Week 13 this Sunday. Akers appeared in only three games for Minnesota this year, carrying the ball five times for 19 yards while also completing a 32-yard pass on a trick play. The six-year NFL veteran will give Seattle some more backfield depth, with George Holani (hamstring) a candidate to land on Injured Reserve. Akers probably won't have any fantasy value as long as both Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet stay healthy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker completely disappeared during last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals. Before that game, Tucker had seen double-digit rushing attempts in three of his last four contests. During last week's game, Tucker rushed the ball twice for zero yards. The return of Bucky Irving appears to have ended Tucker's run as a fantasy-relevant back. There are too many mouths to feed with Irving and Rachaad White both involved now. The 24-year-old is worth holding in dynasty leagues with White being a pending free agent at the end of the season. Outside of that, Tucker can be sent back to the waiver wire in most 12-team redraft leagues.
