BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 9% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: In Week 4, the Las Vegas Raiders didn't have Davante Adams because of a hamstring injury. There's been plenty of speculation about Adams and his future with the team. While the team continues to say they aren't trading him, it's unclear when we'll see him on the field yet.
While the biggest beneficiary of an extended Adams absence will be Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker has a shot at fantasy relevance as well. Against the Browns, Tucker played a key role for the Raiders and found the end zone for the second week in a row, scoring on a three-yard run. He also caught five of his six targets for 41 yards.
Add Raiders 2nd year WR Tre Tucker. He will be operating as the WR2 with Davanta Adams out and has played 90% snaps every game this year. Rumor has it The Las Vegas Raiders are trying ti trade Adams he could be a fantasy steal. Lastbgame 9 tar 7 rec 96 yds 1 TD. Worth a shot. pic.twitter.com/hAVlPYVsXS

Tucker is a talented player, but his path to maintaining this pace is complicated. If Adams is out, he's worth rostering in 12-team PPR leagues. If Adams returns, he's still worth a shot in 14-team leagues.
