Who Should I Start? Sean Tucker or Evan Hull

Friday, September 15, 9:46 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker received his first taste of NFL action during the Week 1 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie back rushed five times for 15 yards, while hauling in two receptions for an additional nine yards. It seems that Tucker has worked his way into the No. 2 role behind Rachaad White. The undrafted rookie has been impressive early on. However, it appears the Bucs plan to pound the ball with White after 17 rushing attempts in Week 1. If that remains the case, Tucker isn't going to offer much fantasy value whatsoever. He'll be worth rostering in dynasty formats, but fantasy managers in redraft formats can wait until Tucker gets a bigger role on this offense. Tucker won't be a recommended streaming option for the Week 2 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Evan Hull (knee), who was already placed on Injured Reserve, will now miss the rest of his first NFL season with a torn meniscus. The Colts were impressed with Hull when he was on the field and they still have high hopes for him in the future. The fifth-round selection had just one carry for one yard and caught one pass for a six-yard gain in the season opener over eight offensive snaps. The Colts still have Jonathan Taylor (ankle) on the Physically Unable to Perform list for at least two more games, but they added Trey Sermon to their practice squad earlier this week to give them more RB depth behind Zack Moss, Deon Jackson and Jake Funk. Hull is only worth stashing in deep dynasty/keeper leagues.
