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.

Ollie Gordon II News

Ollie Gordon II Will Look to Continue His Breakout in Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 5:04 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II has stepped in as the team's primary running back for the last three games, since a season-ending injury to De'Von Achane (knee). Gordon has run for a touchdown in each of those three games, with 17 carries for 41 yards against the Chiefs, nine carries for 100 yards against the Vikings, and 18 carries for 88 yards against the Bengals. He hasn't been very involved as a receiver out of the backfield in Miami's struggling passing attack, but his work on the ground and role as the lead option make him a strong option to consider as an RB3 or FLEX play in Week 7 against the Jets. Gordon is the RB23 in RotoBaller's rankings, which makes him a good option to slot into lineups against the Jets, who have allowed six RB touchdowns in six games this season.
