Raiders' Tre Tucker: Produces long TD in Week 13 loss
Rotowire
Tucker caught his only target for a 58-yard touchdown in Friday's defeat against Kansas City.
Tucker made the most of his lone target, gathering in a deep pass from Aidan O'Connell in the fourth quarter and taking it to the end zone for a 58-yard score. The touchdown gave the Raiders a one-point lead, but it was the last time the team was able to score in the contest. Tucker's reception was the longest of his career, and the touchdown was his first since Week 3 against Carolina. The second-year wideout has been tough to trust in fantasy this season, as he's logged three or fewer receptions nine times through 12 games.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Clear to suit up Friday
Rotowire
Tucker (hip) does not have an injury designation ahead of Friday's Week 13 game against Kansas City.
Tucker dealt with a hip issue throughout the week, but the injury won't prevent him from suiting up Friday. The second-year wideout has been a big part of Las Vegas' passing game this season, logging at least 80 percent of the team's defensive snaps in each of the Raiders' past nine contests. Tucker and the team's No. 1 receiver, Jakobi Meyers, could be busy Friday, especially if Las Vegas falls behind against the 10-1 Chiefs.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Limited practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Tucker (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Tucker has been listed as limited in two straight practices to begin Week 13 prep, which likely puts him on track to play Friday against the Chiefs. He logged 90 percent of the offensive snaps in last Sunday's loss to the Broncos, and he's been a fixture in the offense since Davante Adams was dealt to the Jets in October.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Big day against Denver
Rotowire
Tucker caught seven of eight targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 29-19 loss to the Broncos.
The 2023 third-round pick posted his best numbers since Week 3, and Tucker nearly capped his performance with a touchdown -- he appeared to get into the end zone on his final catch of the day on Las Vegas' final drive, but he was ruled down short of the goal line. Tucker has caught multiple passes in 10 of 11 games this season, but he's hauled in more than three only three times.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Limited to three catches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker secured three of four targets for 28 yards and rushed once for seven yards in the Raiders' 34-19 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Tucker tied several teammates for third in receptions, but as has been the norm this season, he couldn't parlay his modest opportunities into much production. The speedy Tucker has been over 41 receiving yards just once this season -- he posted a season-high 96 yards against the Panthers in Week 3 -- as he continues to serve as a clear tertiary target in an air attack typically led by star rookie tight end Brock Bowers and veteran wideout Jakobi Meyers. Tucker's next opportunity to improve his numbers isn't exactly an inviting one, as he'll face a talented Broncos secondary in a Week 12 home matchup.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Two catches in loss to Kansas City
Rotowire
Tucker caught two of three targets for 26 yards and he rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Kansas City.
Tucker led Las Vegas' wideouts with a 91 percent snap share, but Jakobi Meyers and DJ Turner provided much more fantasy utility as they combined for 10 receptions on 11 targets for 80 yards and two touchdowns. Tucker figures to remain busy from a playing-time perspective against the Bengals in Week 9, but the second-year wideout hasn't caught more than three passes in a game since Week 4.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Zero catches in loss
Rotowire
Tucker failed to haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
Tucker was on the field for 60 of a possible 63 offensive snaps with fellow receivers Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but the 23-year-old speedster was unable to connect with quarterback Aidan O'Connell in the latter's first start of the season. Meanwhile, rookie tight end Brock Bowers continued to impress as he led all Raiders pass catchers with a 9-71-0 receiving line on 10 targets. An easier matchup awaits Tucker against the Rams in Week 7, but his low floor remains a concern.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Five catches, rushing TD in win
Rotowire
Tucker caught five of six targets for 41 yards and added a three-yard rushing touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns.
Tucker tied Jakobi Meyers for the team lead in catches, and while he was eight yards and four targets shy of Meyers' totals as a receiver, Tucker more than made up for that with a three-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. Tucker had 96 yards and a touchdown in the Week 3 loss to the Panthers, but most of that production came with the game out of hand, so it was encouraging to see him remain heavily involved from the get-go in Sunday's competitive win. Tucker should continue to play a larger role in Week 5 against the Broncos if Davante Adams (hamstring) remains sidelined.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Expected to start in Week 4
Rotowire
Tucker is expected to take on a starting role in Sunday's game against the Browns after Davante Adams (hamstring) was ruled out, Levi Damien of USA Today reports.
Tucker is coming off a big game last week against Carolina in which he logged a 7-96-1 line on nine targets with the Raiders chasing points all afternoon. The second-year wideout now will have a chance to build on that performance as the likely No. 1 downfield option on the outside with Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers working the middle of the field. Tucker has shown his ceiling, but he also has a scary-low floor for fantasy purposes.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Pair of catches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught both of his targets for 13 yards and he returned three punts for 16 yards in Sunday's 26-23 win over the Ravens.
Tucker has posted a disappointing 4-35-0 receiving line on five total targets through the Raiders' first two contests despite relatively pass-friendly situations, and he continues to take a back seat to Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers in the pecking order for looks from quarterback Gardner Minshew. On a more positive note, Tucker's 69 percent offensive snap share through two weeks is trending in the right direction.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Big gains Saturday
Rotowire
Tucker caught two of four targets for 73 yards in Saturday's 24-23 preseason loss to the Vikings. He also added 23 yards on one punt return.
Davante Adams got the night off, leaving Jakobi Meyers and Tucker as the Raiders' starting wideouts, and the latter wound up leading the team in receiving yards thanks to gains of 29 and 44 yards on successive second-quarter touchdown drives with Gardner Minshew under center. Tucker has drawn plenty of praise from the coaching staff in camp, and the 2023 third-round pick could be headed for a breakout campaign if he can earn enough volume in a passing game that also has to find targets for tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Flashes big-play ability as rookie
Rotowire
Tucker caught all five of his targets for a season-high 79 yards in the Raiders' Week 18 win over the Broncos, ultimately finishing the 2023 campaign with 19 receptions for 331 yards and two touchdowns on 34 targets in 16 games. He also rushed 10 times for 77 yards.
Tucker was a healthy scratch in the Raiders' season opener despite being selected with the 100th overall pick in last April's draft, but the rookie took his first NFL touch for 34 yards on a jet sweep against the Bills in Week 2, and he eventually recorded six receptions of 20-plus yards throughout the team's final 12 games. Tucker became the preferred No. 3 option at wide receiver behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers as the season wore on, beating out Hunter Renfrow for playing time down the stretch. Tucker's speed and big-play ability are evident heading into 2024, but more competent quarterback play also could arrive in Las Vegas this offseason.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Two touches Monday
Rotowire
Tucker caught his only target for a loss of four yards in Monday's 20-14 win over the Chiefs. He also rushed once for five yards.
Tucker's regression after posting a 3-59-2 line against the Chargers in Week 15 came as no surprise, but the rookie still managed to play twice as many offensive snaps (22) as veteran Hunter Renfrow (11) on Christmas Day. A similar split behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers is likely against the Colts in Week 17, as the Raiders continue developing Tucker.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Notches first two NFL touchdowns
Rotowire
Tucker caught three of four targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 63-21 win over the Chargers. He also lost two yards on his only rushing attempt.
Tucker contributed to the Raiders' blowout victory by catching a pair of 20-plus yard touchdown passes in the first half, which also marked his first two NFL scores. The rookie logged just three offensive snaps against Minnesota in Week 14, but he was on the field for 29 plays Thursday compared to 27 for fellow wide receiver Hunter Renfrow. However, it's unlikely that a Week 16 matchup versus the Chiefs involves a similar game script.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Career-high seven targets Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught two passes for 36 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Dolphins.
Tucker finished Sunday's contest behind only Davante Adams in targets from quarterback Aidan O'Connell, with the rookie wideout earning seven looks on just 24 offensive snaps. The career-high seven targets translated to just two receptions, however, one of which came on the Raiders' final drive of the game. Tucker has flashed big-play ability, but he's difficult to trust against a stingy Chiefs secondary in Las Vegas' Week 12 matchup.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Not targeted in loss
Rotowire
Tucker failed to record a single target in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.
After playing 48 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps in Week 7, Tucker's playing time took a major hit in Week 8 as he played just 13 percent of snaps Monday. The rookie wideout was not a part of the game plan, with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo failing to connect with the speedster on any of his six snaps. With limited usage on a struggling offense, Tucker should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Raiders host the Giants in Week 9.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Catches 48-yard deep ball Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker caught both of his targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Patriots. He also rushed once for four yards.
Tucker not only logged a season-high 22 offensive snaps, but the speedy rookie also got behind the Patriots secondary on a 48-yard reception to flip the field on a third-down conversion in the second half. Although Tucker has earned just four total targets through the first five games of his NFL career, fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow was hardly involved Sunday with seven snaps of his own, so Tucker's expanded role behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers could stick for the Raiders' road trip to Chicago in Week 7.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Gets green light
Rotowire
Tucker (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official website reports.
Tucker logged consecutive limited practices to kick off the week after injuring his knee in Monday's 17-13 victory over the Packers. However, he put in a full day's work Friday and was held off the team's final injury report as a result. Barring any setbacks, he is set to provide depth at receiver while primarily contributing on special teams.

Raiders' Tre Tucker: Receives two touches Sunday
Rotowire
Tucker had one reception (three targets) for three yards and one carry for three yards in Sunday's 34-7 preseason win over San Francisco.
Tucker didn't get to put his wheels on display, but he was able to show off his dual-threat ability on a jet sweep attempt. The third-round rookie is looking to make the team as a gadget wideout and return man. Tucker will look to have more success with his touches in the Raiders' next preseason matchup against the Rams on Saturday.
