The Las Vegas Raiders are 2-6 and dead last in the AFC West. They will face their division rivals, the first place Denver Broncos as big underdogs on the road. There really isn’t much going for them right now. They ended up shipping WR Jakobi Meyers to Jacksonville at the trade deadline, which will free up some playing time for younger receivers, while Tre Tucker takes over as WR1, but still be behind Brock Bowers in the pecking order. It will be good for them to evaluate rookies Dont’e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech in the second half of the season, but for fantasy, it might be tough to start a player other than Bowers from these pass catchers.
Below, we’ll go over Tre Tucker’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 10.
Fantasy Football analysis: Raiders, WR, Tre Tucker
Tucker has one three touchdown game that blew the doors off of Week 3, but he’s been mostly quiet otherwise. Now with Meyers gone, there is some hope he’ll command more than his 5.4 targets per game average. He could, but I also expect we’ll see the rookie receivers and TE Michael Mayer get some extra work. Tucker is still the receiver to roster in redraft, as he could have a post Jakobi spike, but I think we can wait a week to see how he’s used, especially against the Broncos, who are one of the best defenses in the league.
