Sean Tucker's Solid Training Camp Continues

Sunday, August 9, 5:25 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker has flashed standout moments throughout training camp, and a practice update from Pewter Report credits him with a number of catches out of the backfield during Sunday's session. The Buccaneers boast one of the best pass-catching running back tandems in the league in Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell, so how much Tucker is actually used in that capacity in the regular season remains a question, but the fourth-year back is adding to a profile that could see him serve as an important piece of Tampa's goal-line offense. Tucker converted on four of his nine carries from within the five-yard line in 2025, and if he can hold the role in 2026, he could play his way into the weekly streaming conversation as RotoBaller's RB53.

Tank Bigsby News

Drumbeat Growing Louder for Tank Bigsby

Thursday, August 13, 6:59 AM

Without the benefit of training camp with the team following an in-season trade from the Jaguars, Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby saw limited offensive work and ran for only 344 yards in 2025. While the raw production is far from staggering, his 5.9 yards per carry were hard to ignore, especially with three-time Pro Bowler Saquon Barkley averaging only 4.1 yards per attempt behind the same banged-up offensive line. In his first training camp with the team, Bigsby has been praised for his physicality, and there is a growing belief that he could see a significant uptick in between-the-tackles work this season in an attempt to keep the 29-year-old Barkley fresh. While no one is reasonably suggesting a 50/50 split, Bigsby could see enough volume in 2026 to hold standalone value in what has been one of the league's run-heaviest offenses since Nick Sirianni took over in 2021. Bigsby is RotoBaller's RB46, and even if he is unable to carve out a flex-worthy role, he remains one of fantasy's most valuable insurance backs.
