Sean Tucker Remains Buried on Buccaneers' Running Back Depth Chart

Saturday, March 28, 10:29 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker showed flashes of high-level production upside in 2025, recording 354 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns on 94 touches across 17 games played. However, most of Tucker's chances came with fellow Bucs running back Bucky Irving sidelined by injury. When Irving was healthy, Tucker was largely limited to RB3 work behind both Irving and Rachaad White. White departed Tampa Bay in free agency for the Washington Commanders, but the Bucs brought in even stiffer competition for Tucker in the form of former Pittsburgh Steelers back Kenneth Gainwell. As long as Irving and Gainwell are healthy, Tucker's pathway to regular playing time in Tampa Bay is hard to see. The 24-year-old remains a slightly intriguing depth option for fantasy managers, but his dynasty value is fading as he enters his fourth NFL season and remains without a clear role in his team's offense.

Will Shipley News

Will Shipley Falls to RB3 on Depth Chart

Friday, November 21, 11:34 PM

Philadelphia Eagles Will Shipley has been relegated mostly to special teams touches and the occasional carry behind Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby as the team's RB3. The Eagles acquired Bigsby ahead of Week 7, and he's mostly served as the primary backup to Barkley. Since then, Bigsby and Shipley have each played 14.5% of the offensive snaps, but Bigsby has 17 carries to Shipley's seven during that span. The 2024 fourth-round pick entered the season as the No. 2 back for the Eagles, then missed Weeks 2 and 3 due to a rib injury, and has now fallen out of favor with the team, going out and trading for another back to have another capable option behind Barkley. Shipley still has some appeal as a handcuff if Barkley were to go down, but it would likely be a timeshare with Bigsby.
