Sean Tucker Inactive for Week 6 Against Steelers

Sunday, October 18, 7:41 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. Tucker was listed as questionable after missing Wednesday's practice and participating on a limited basis Thursday and Friday. The Buccaneers elevated Josh Williams from the practice squad on Saturday to provide additional backfield depth behind Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell. Tucker has recorded eight carries for 28 yards and one touchdown this season, including five attempts for 18 yards against Dallas in Week 5. His absence removes a potential short-yardage option from Tampa Bay's rotation, although his limited workload suggests the fantasy impact should be modest. Irving remains the team's primary rushing option, while Gainwell could pick up some additional work against Pittsburgh.

Emanuel Wilson News

Emanuel Wilson a Flex Option in Week 7

Friday, October 23, 3:20 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson seems likely to get one more crack at the starting gig with Zach Charbonnet (knee) ruled out for Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Wilson's effectiveness in fantasy this season has come on the back of four touchdowns. Otherwise, Wilson is averaging 3.48 yards per carry behind a struggling offensive line and running scheme. Things do not project to get much better in Week 7 against a Chiefs defense allowing 63.8 yards per game to opposing running backs. Wilson's best bet for a quality fantasy day will be to receive a couple of goal line carries and find his way into the end zone. Seattle's rotation includes Velus Jones Jr. and George Holani. Jones especially looked much more explosive than Wilson in Week 6 against the Denver Broncos. Wilson still projects to receive the lion's share of carries in this offense, but proceed with caution as his snap share in Week 6 fell to a measly 32%. However, volume alone could help Wilson deliver flex value in Week 7.
