Tallies 49 yards
Tucker recorded five receptions on six targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Tucker saw a slight uptick in targets due to Jack Bech (back) and Brock Bowers (knee) both being sidelined, finishing second on the team in targets. He was involved early, recording three receptions for 35 yards on the Raiders' second offensive possession. Tucker should see at least a handful of targets in Week 18 against the Chiefs, though the offense isn't likely to experience much success with Kenny Pickett under center.

Garners six touches in loss
Tucker brought in four of five targets for 43 yards and took two carries for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to Houston.
Analysis: Tucker bounced back nicely from last week's zero-catch effort with modest contributions as both a runner and receiver against the Texans. The Raiders welcomed back QB Geno Smith (shoulder/back) from a one-game absence, which turned out to be great news for Tucker, who has proven to be one of the veteran quarterback's favorite targets this season. The third-year wideout may have also benefited from Tyler Lockett's (wrist) early departure from Sunday's contest. If the latter is forced to miss…read more

Held catchless in blowout loss
Tucker failed to secure any of his three targets in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Tucker was held without a catch for the first time all season, despite playing 93 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps, the most of any Las Vegas pass catcher. The 24-year-old wideout has been quiet in recent weeks, failing to score a touchdown or record at least 30 receiving yards since Week 11. Tucker's lack of significant production is directly tied to the Raiders' offensive struggles as a whole, which has limited the upside of most Las Vegas skill position players with the exception of…read more

Shut down by Broncos
Tucker recorded two receptions on five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Tucker tied for second on the team in targets, though he managed only two catches for modest gains of 13 and 11 yards. All of his targets and production came with Geno Smith (hand) under center, so his outlook is murky heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Eagles with Kenny Pickett potentially leading the offense. Even if Smith is able to suit up, Tucker has now been held to under 30 receiving yards in three straight games.

Three targets in loss
Tucker caught all three of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: No Raiders wide receiver saw more than three targets, while Brock Bowers and Ashton Jeanty combined for 10 catches, 93 yards and two touchdowns on 12 targets. Tucker should continue to see significant playing time in the Raiders' underwhelming receiving corps, but production won't be easy to come by in Week 14 against a Broncos defense that has been among the best in the league at limiting wide receivers. If you take away Tucker's 145-yard, three-touchdown outburst against the Commanders in…read more

Practices fully Thursday
Tucker (knee) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: After logging a limited session Wednesday, Tucker's return to a full practice a day later sets the stage for him to be available Sunday against the Chargers. With seven catches (on 18 targets) for 75 yards and a TD over his last two games, Tucker's recent level of involvement in the Raiders offense gives him a degree of fantasy utility heading into Week 13 action. Overall, the 2023 third-rounder has compiled a 41-530-5 line on 64 targets through 11 games.

Tucker (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Tucker was on the field for 95 percent of the Raiders' snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns en route to recording three catches on a team-high 10 targets for 28 yards. Following a limited practice listing Wednesday, the wideout now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the Raiders post their Week 13 injury designations Friday.

Struggles with 10 targets Sunday
Tucker was held to three receptions on 10 targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to Cleveland.
Analysis: Tucker led the Raiders with 10 targets Sunday, but he failed to convert the increased opportunities into production in the box score. The blame can be primarily placed on QB Geno Smith, who airmailed an open Tucker down the field on several occasions in the disappointing loss. The 10 targets represented a new high-water mark for the speedy receiver, as his role has expanded in the three games following the departure of Jakobi Meyers at the trade deadline.

Tucker brought in four of eight targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 33-16 loss to Dallas.
Analysis: Tucker experienced greater success in his second game operating as the Raiders' top wideout after cashing in his team's only touchdown of the evening. It was the 24-year-old's first trip to the end zone since scoring thrice back in Week 3, and the eight targets also were the most he's garnered since that standout performance.

Quiet in first game as top wideout
Tucker brought in two of three targets for 28 yards and rushed once for seven yards in the Raiders' 10-7 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.
Analysis: Tucker became the the Raiders' No. 1 receiver on paper due to the trade of Jakobi Meyers to the Jaguars on Tuesday, but that wasn't exactly reflected on Thursday's stat sheet. Veteran Tyler Lockett, who had gone without a catch in his team debut Sunday against the Jaguars, finished as Las Vegas pace-setter among the pass-catching corps Thursday with a 5-44-0 line on six targets, while had Tucker his lowest catch and receiving yardage totals since Week 4.

New No. 1 on depth chart in Vegas
Tucker is the top receiver left on the Raiders' depth chart after Las Vegas traded Jakobi Meyers to Jacksonville on Tuesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Meyers had been a focal point in the Raiders passing attack while appearing in seven of the first eight games, commanding 20.7 percent of the team's overall targets and registering 352 yards on 33 catches. Though Meyers' departure leaves tight end Brock Bowers as the clear No. 1 option in the passing game, Tucker and Las Vegas' other receivers should also benefit from at least slight bumps in opportunity.

Gains 38 yards in OT loss
Tucker finished with three receptions on four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to Jacksonville.
Analysis: Tucker produced the most yards from any Las Vegas wide receiver Sunday, but he finished a distant third behind TE Brock Bowers (12-127-3) and RB Ashton Jeanty (5-47-1) in receiving. The 24-year-old Tucker has seen his production peter out following his outlier three-score performance back in Week 3, averaging 3.8 receptions and 43.2 yards with no touchdowns in the five games since. Tucker should be viewed as a deep-league option heading into next Sunday's tilt versus the Broncos.

Lone bright spot for Raiders
Tucker recorded five receptions on six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Tucker benefited from the absence of Jakobi Meyers (knee) and Brock Bowers (knee), but the performance of the Raiders' offense muted his stat line. Tucker led the team in every receiving stat, though three of his catches went for five yards or fewer. The Raiders will now head into a Week 8 bye, which will likely allow both Meyers and Bowers to get healthy and push Tucker down in priority for targets in the offense when the team retakes the field against the Jaguars in Week 9.

Could benefit sans Meyers, Bowers
Tucker is expected to be a focal point in the Las Vegas passing attack Sunday against the Chiefs due to top wideout Jakobi Meyers (knee/toe) and top tight end Brock Bowers (knee) being inactive for the contest, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Bowers had already missed the Raiders' previous two games, and while Michael Mayer will once again step in as the team's No. 1 tight end and benefit the most from a playing time standpoint, Bowers' absence along with Meyers' will free up more targets for all of Las Vegas' pass catchers. Along with Mayer, Tucker looks to be one of the primary beneficiaries from the vacated target volume, and rookie receivers Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton are also candidates to move into elevated roles.

Leads team with 70 yards
Tucker had five receptions on as many targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Tucker finished as the Raiders' leading receiver on a low-volume day from the passing offense. The 24-year-old finished with a receiving line somewhere in between the highs and lows we had seen over his previous five appearances. The overall package has been a net positive from the speedy wideout after producing a 24-356-4 line through six starts. Tucker provides enough upside to warrant a spot in most fantasy lineups ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Kansas City.

Team-high receiving yardage total
Tucker brought in four of six targets for 62 yards in the Raiders' 40-6 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Tucker led the team in receiving yards while checking in tied for second in both receptions and targets. The speedy third-year pro recorded a team-best 33-yard catch in the process, Tucker's fourth reception of 20-plus yards this season. Despite Geno Smith's interception troubles over the first five games of his Raiders tenure, the chemistry between the veteran signal-caller and Tucker seems to be solid heading into a Week 6 home matchup against a beatable Titans defense.

Tucker had two receptions on as many targets for 13 yards while taking two carries for nine yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Tucker crashed back to reality after posting a career game with three touchdowns against the Commanders in Week 3. The versatile wideout remained involved with four touches, but Geno Smith's struggles may have contributed to Tucker's inability to break off a big gain Sunday. With expectations back in check, Tucker should resume his role as a fantasy dart throw when the Raiders visit the Colts next Sunday.

Tucker hauled in 10-yard scores in the second and fourth quarter before getting behind the Washington secondary for a 61-yard touchdown from Geno Smith late in the contest as the Raiders tried to mount a comeback.

Tucker caught two of eight targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints. He also rushed once for five yards and returned two punts for 28 yards.
Analysis: Tucker made up for a measly 25 percent catch rate with an 18-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter, but he's now caught two passes or less in five consecutive games. It won't get any easier for Tucker in Week 18 against a stout Chargers defense that figures to play its starters if the Bengals beat the Steelers on Saturday, giving Los Angeles a chance to move up to the fifth seed in the AFC.

Analysis: Tucker dealt with a hip issue throughout the week, but the injury won't prevent him from suiting up Friday.

Analysis: Tucker is playing nearly every offensive snap for the Raiders since the Davante Adams trade, but the 23-year-old speedster has averaged just 3.9 yards per target over the past three weeks.

Davante Adams is a Jet now and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sat out a second consecutive game, leaving Tucker as the top available option in Vegas' underwhelming wide receiver room.

Tucker recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Tucker was targeted four times during garbage time drives in the final quarter, but the Raiders also seemed to prioritize getting the ball to him early in the game. His biggest play of the contest came late in the first quarter on a 54-yard catch deep down the middle of the field, and he also chipped in a touchdown to conclude the Raiders' final offensive drive.

The Raiders seem optimistic it will carry over in this case, with coach Antonio Pierce saying Tucker is a "different dude" who plays like "the biggest guy out there" despite being 5-foot-9, 185 pounds. Tucker opened last season as the team's fourth/fifth WR after being a third-round pick, eventually working his way up to the No. 3 role and then catching 11 of 15 targets for 170 yards and…read more

Flashes big-play ability as rookie
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.
Analysis: 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…read more

Targeted five times Sunday
Tucker caught two of five targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Tucker's 51 offensive snaps marked a season high for the rookie, but he notched just two receptions, while Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers combined for 182 yards and two scores on 19 receptions and 31 targets between the duo. Nonetheless, Tucker is expected to continue working ahead of veteran Hunter Renfrow in Week 18 against the Broncos.

Two touches Monday
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.
Analysis: 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.

Notches first two NFL touchdowns
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.
Analysis: 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.

Role on offense declining
Tucker failed to haul in his lone target while playing three of the Raiders' 54 snaps on offense in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Since logging seven targets in a Week 11 loss to the Vikings, Tucker has seen a steep decline in both his playing time and involvement in the passing attack over Las Vegas' subsequent two contests. After playing just 13 snaps and logging one target in a Week 12 loss to the Chiefs, Tucker saw his role grow even smaller coming out of the Raiders' Week 13 bye.

Career-high seven targets Sunday
Tucker caught two passes for 36 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: 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.

One touch on SNF
Tucker rushed once for nine yards in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Tucker wasn't targeted in the passing game on Sunday Night Football, and he played just 15 offensive snaps behind fellow receivers Davante Adams (62), Jakobi Meyers (58) and Hunter Renfrow (27). The rookie is averaging 20.8 yards per reception through his first nine games in the NFL, but Tucker's sample remains minuscule with just six total catches on the season.

Totals 56 yards in win
Tucker caught two of three targets for 52 yards and rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Tucker's Week 9 performance was highlighted by a 50-yard reception late in the second quarter that eventually led to one of Josh Jacobs' two touchdowns. The rookie speedster ultimately played 28 of a possible 60 offensive snaps behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers, while fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow logged just 13. Tucker has caught exactly two passes in three of the Raiders' past four games, and he'll look to introduce his big-play ability to a stingy Jets defense Week 10.

Not targeted in loss
Tucker failed to record a single target in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: 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.

Three touches in defeat
Tucker caught two of three targets for 16 yards and rushed once for two yards in Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: The rookie speedster's pair of receptions came on the Raiders' last drive of the game with the team trailing 30-6 and fellow rookie Aidan O'Connell under center instead of veteran Brian Hoyer. Tucker ultimately finished the contest with a career-high 32 offensive snaps played. He figures to continue in a depth role at wideout behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers in Week 8 against the Lions, but the potential return of Jimmy Garoppolo (back) would elevate the ceiling of all the Raiders'…read more

Catches 48-yard deep ball Sunday
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.
Analysis: 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…read more

Gets green light
Tucker (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official website reports.
Analysis: 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.

Questionable to return
Tucker (knee) is considered questionable to return to Monday's contest with the Packers.
Analysis: Tucker suffered a knee injury in the first half of the Raiders' Week 5 matchup with Green Bay and his status for the rest of the game is uncertain. The wide receiver produced a 16-yard run prior to exiting the contest.

Runs for 34 yards in debut
Tucker was held without a catch on just one target in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Bills, but he took his lone carry for 34 yards.
Analysis: Tucker, who was a healthy inactive Week 1, immediately showcased his speed on the Raiders' opening drive Sunday when the third-round rookie ran for 34 yards on a jet sweep, setting up a 16-yard touchdown pass from Jimmy Garoppolo to Davante Adams (concussion) on the very next play. Tucker ultimately logged only nine offensive snaps, however, while fellow reserve Kristian Wilkerson played 29 snaps. If Adams and Jakobi Meyers remain subject to the league's concussion protocol, Tucker could see…read more

Healthy inactive
Tucker (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.
Analysis: A rookie third-round pick, Tucker presumably will play a big role for the Raiders eventually. However, Tucker finds himself behind Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers, Hunter Renfrow, DeAndre Carter and Kristian Wilkerson on the depth chart to start the year.

Targeted twice
Tucker recorded one reception on two targets for 11 yards in Saturday's 31-16 preseason loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The Raiders sat the majority of their receiving corps, which gave Tucker the chance to play early. He was targeted in both the short and long areas of the field, though ultimately he turned in a modest stat line. A third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Tucker should make the Las Vegas roster as a depth pass catcher.

Receives two touches Sunday
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.
Analysis: 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.
