Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker may have an easier path to playing time because of Michael Gallup's retirement.
The Raiders announced a flurry of moves on Tuesday evening, including placing the 28-year-old veteran receiver on the reserve/retired list.
Gallup’s retirement means two things: the Raiders need to find some receiver depth, and second-year speedster Tre Tucker’s battle for the third receiver spot just lost some competition.Another free agent addition, Jalen Guyton, was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list, so he will miss valuable reps in training camp. Gallup and Guyton were Tucker’s two biggest roadblocks to becoming WR3.
Will Tucker show he can be more than just a burner in 2024? A better question may be: does he need to?
