The Las Vegas Raiders are going to need more out of wide receiver Tre Tucker in the Week 17 game against the New York Giants.
That's because the Raiders have shut down fellow tight end Brock Bowers for the rest of the season due to a knee injury, and they don't have rookie wide receiver Jack Bech due to injury, also.
But Tucker is not doing what the Raiders need early on in the contest versus New York, as he's off to a slow start.
Here's a closer look at what's going on.
Is Tre Tucker playing today?
Yes, Tucker is healthy and active, he just hasn't gotten going yet.
The Raiders are short on pass-catcher options, so it shouldn't be long before Tucker gets on the stat sheet.
