Sean Tucker
RB
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Teammate Emeka Egbuka (a top target) is questionable.
A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.
This is how RBs have played against the Cowboys in the 2026 season.
RB2 = the second-highest-scoring RB against Cowboys in each game, not a fixed depth-chart spot.

How Sean Tucker should do vs the CowboysSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Cowboys, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Sean Tucker has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Cowboys opponents to line them up with: the best RB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Sean Tucker will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Cowboys avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Sean Tucker's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Sean Tucker usually produces.
Projected is Sean Tucker's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Cowboys were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.
| Wk | Opp | Car | RuYd | RuTD | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | GB | 3 | 10 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 7.0 |
| 5 | DAL | 5 | 18 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1.8 |
| 7 | CAR | 7 | 52 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 11.2 |
| Tucker avg | 5.0 | 26.7 | 0.7 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 6.7 | |
| Cowboys RB2 avg | 8.3 | 29.0 | 0.0 | 1.3 | 1.3 | 11.5 | 0.3 | 6.8 | |
| Difference | +3.3 | +2.3 | -0.7 | +1.3 | +1.3 | +11.5 | +0.3 | +0.1 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Tucker averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Prediction & chance to scoreSean Tucker vs the Cowboys
Prediction for Sean Tucker
Nobody knows which slot Sean Tucker will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Cowboys.
I predict about 8.5 points for Sean Tucker if playing as a RB2. Sean Tucker has averaged 7.0 over 1 game, and the Cowboys have given up 6.8 to RB2s (+46% vs the league average of 4.7).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Sean Tucker scored: Wk 4 7.0. Average 7.0; weighted toward recent games it is 6.7.
2. The defense. Over 4 games, the Cowboys allowed 6.8 points to their opponent's RB2. The league average for that slot is 4.7, so that is +46%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 4 defensive games, only 57% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +26% adjustment (x1.26).
4. Result. 6.7 x 1.26 = 8.5. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Sean Tucker is to reach it as a RB2.
Why this percentage?
The projection (8.5) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 5.1 points, leaning on Sean Tucker's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical RB swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 8.
With only 1 game of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table
