Sean Tucker to be Short Yardage Back in 2026?

Friday, July 31, 7:21 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker is likely to be a factor on the goal line again. While Bucky Irving and Kenneth Gainwell take over as the RB by committee, Tucker remains a factor in short-yardage and goal-line situations because of his size advantage over Irving and Gainwell. Tucker scored eight touchdowns last season, including six in his final eight games, while Irving had zero attempts inside the five-yard line. With the Buccaneers' offense hoping to bounce back after a tough finish to their season, Tucker could see more work on the goal line. Along with his value as a handcuff to Irving, Tucker is worth monitoring in most fantasy formats this season.

Trevor Etienne Still Has Work to Do for Redraft Value

Sunday, July 26, 9:28 AM

Carolina Panthers running back Trevor Etienne remains a long shot for useful redraft work after barely touching the offense as a rookie. He appeared in all 17 games, but 20 carries for 94 yards and three catches for 13 yards were the extent of his production. Special teams kept him active. It did not move him any closer to Chuba Hubbard, who enters camp as Carolina's clear lead back. Jonathon Brooks is also back after missing last season with his second ACL tear, and the early camp reports have been encouraging. The Panthers added AJ Dillon, too, although the veteran is fighting for a roster spot rather than walking into a guaranteed role. Etienne still has speed, youth, and fourth-round draft capital on his side. He also has to prove he can earn more than a handful of offensive snaps. RotoBaller ranks him RB84 for redraft, which is where he belongs until the backfield starts opening up. He is a preseason watch-list player in deeper formats, not someone managers need to force into ordinary drafts.
