What Does Sean Tucker Know?
August 25th, 2024Yeah, call Joe weird. But unless something happens, it hasn’t. Don’t tell Joe you have never been surprised by a transaction a team has made. Or hasn’t made.
Athletes, especially NFL players, love to put out cryptic messages on social media. It’s almost like a game. And Joe is guilty of lapping this stuff up because Joe knows Bucs fans want to know every morsel about their team.
Bucs backup running back Sean Tucker put out a Twitter this morning “It All Counts Now.” Is Joe to assume Tucker has been told he’s on the 53-man roster? Or is Tucker like Joe and couldn’t wait for the worthless preseason to be over?
It’s not like the Bucs are deep at running back. And with Chase Edmonds — a backup on the worst rushing team in the league last year — likely to start the season on injured reserve, it’s no shock for Tucker to make the team again.
Hell, he had a good preseason. With no depth at runnign back, why wouldn’t the Bucs keep him?
Two days before cutdown day, it’s interesting to Joe who knows and doesn’t know he’s made the team.

He better have made the team. Pitchforks and storming the gates if not.
August 25th, 2024 at 11:07 am
Well…..the next game counts, as do all of them thereafter. So he probably means, now the games count.
August 25th, 2024 at 11:20 am
Our biggest and fastest RB is definitely making the team.
Regardless of the logic R Munch spouts about R White, my eyes and intuition think Sean Tucker seems like our best prototypical RB. With Bucky our #2 and Rachaad as a potent 3rd down back…. (by season’s end, that’s prob how it will shake out)
August 25th, 2024 at 11:21 am
Won’t make the 53 unless he’s picked up on protection schemes.
August 25th, 2024 at 11:22 am
As a backup he did exactly what he should’ve done against backups showing great vision and and an instant north south running as soon as his cuts found paydirt. Set up and read his blocks well and got extra yards, something we haven’t seen from our starter for 2 seasons. At this point I believe he and Bucky will be on the 1s and 2s before the end of the season unless White has proven he’s learned from the coaches and our run game is much better with him starting
August 25th, 2024 at 11:31 am
Hitting the proper holes with instant speed and acceleration- R White is 3rd.
August 25th, 2024 at 11:59 am
Question is are we going with 3 RB and if 4 who is it?
August 25th, 2024 at 12:27 pm
Love Tucker’s tweet. His tweet got me thinking too. Has he been informed yet, or maybe he and others are nervous this weekend waiting to hear? I am going with he made it and is now looking ahead for season to begin. Go Bucs 🏈
August 25th, 2024 at 12:30 pm
We need a power back that can get us a yard when we need it.
August 25th, 2024 at 12:55 pm
Of course Tucker is in….chill
August 25th, 2024 at 1:02 pm
it’s a “worthless preseason” but “‘he had a good preseason”? Huh?
August 25th, 2024 at 1:09 pm
It’s kind of a no brainer that he made it. Who else is there?
August 25th, 2024 at 1:14 pm
Much ado about nothing.
August 25th, 2024 at 1:14 pm
Tucker has been this year…what we were hoping for last year! Go Sean!
August 25th, 2024 at 1:16 pm
Winner winner Chicken Dinner
The preseason is OVER !
August 25th, 2024 at 1:43 pm
“Yeah, call Joe weird. But unless something happens, it hasn’t. ”
You mean like Todd saying Bucky is better than RW as a runner? You keep saying, or at least insinuating it but it never happened as far as I can tell.
LFG Bucs
August 25th, 2024 at 1:44 pm
Yep, he’s in like Flynn!
August 25th, 2024 at 1:52 pm
Current Bucs that have been cut so far today:
LS Zach Triner
P Nolan Cooney
LB Kalen DeLoach
CB Andrew Hayes
DL Brandon Matterson
WR Raleigh Webb
DT Judge Culpepper
OLB Shaun Peterson
OG Ryan Johnson
RB Ramon Jefferson
August 25th, 2024 at 2:03 pm
I feel like we only need 3 running backs on the 53 man roster and with that being said it’s White, Irving and Tucker. Tucker looks like an nfl back and played a lot better than he did last years pre season. Would love to see us Bucs finish in the top ten in the rushing department, definitely not end up anywhere close to last I hope. Go Bucs
August 25th, 2024 at 2:04 pm
Pretty safe to assume Tucker has made the club. It would be a shocking move to release him. He’s our 1st or 2nd best runner (between him and Bucky).
August 25th, 2024 at 2:07 pm
I tried to post a list of players that have been let go but it’s waiting to be approved. RB Ramon Jefferson got released. Other notables include Zach Triner, Kalen Deloach & David Wells so far. There are more happening as I type.
August 25th, 2024 at 2:07 pm
No brainer. He’s in, 2a or 2b.
August 25th, 2024 at 2:11 pm
Chase Edmonds is starting out the season on reserves and will not get his job back. Dude is a lock by default plus he’s balled out the entire offseason
August 25th, 2024 at 2:26 pm
To the best of Joe’s knowledge, Todd Bowles has never said that.
August 25th, 2024 at 2:33 pm
Knue is gone now too.
August 25th, 2024 at 2:49 pm
What he knew and when he knew it.
August 25th, 2024 at 3:03 pm
This has been at least the second time I’ve seen that picture posted in regard to Sean Tucker. I know the number is 44, but Joes you’ve gotta realize by now that the posted pic is not Sean Tucker. Sean Tucker does not have facial hair lol
August 25th, 2024 at 3:04 pm
With Edmonds on IR, he’ll make the roster, for now.
August 25th, 2024 at 3:44 pm
Edmonds isn’t worth a spot. He had a couple of flashes as a Cardinal, but that’s all done now.
If Bowles likes him so much, he should just give him a spot as a coach.
August 25th, 2024 at 3:45 pm
They probably told Tucker he made the squad.
Nothing super controversial about that.
He had a very good preseason.
August 25th, 2024 at 4:43 pm
Seems like a great mix of running backs, now. Hopefully they can all get action and stay healthy.
August 25th, 2024 at 4:45 pm
what on earth does his hash tag mean tho…?
#PL44SED
^^^^^ no idea what this possibly means….any help would be much appreciated
August 25th, 2024 at 4:48 pm
yeah i was gonna say, that’s not sean tuckage in the pic…
he looks much more like nick chubb’s little brother imho…
in fact……….who is that guy in the picture ???
August 25th, 2024 at 4:50 pm
i say we go into the season with 3 backs on the roster and at least 2 on the practice squad…
while the search continues for the next mike alstott
August 25th, 2024 at 8:33 pm
Adam you misspelled ir PL44SED that’s why you didn’t recognize the word pleased = PL34SED
August 25th, 2024 at 10:02 pm
DaveBigBuc – sorry for the autocorrect fail on my end. Thanks for the translation . My fail was exacerbated by a word that won’t go through the matrix but which means “must be evaluated by a higher authority. “
August 26th, 2024 at 5:50 am
When the official …Real… first depth chart is released I think he may be RB2.
So there is a cryptic surprise for some of us. LOL
Go Bucs!
