Todd Bowles Ready To Roll With Rachaad White And Sean Tucker

While Bucs coach Todd Bowles today admitted rookie Josh Williams is green as grass, Bowles himself is not sweating having to go to the bullpen with Rachaad White and Sean Tucker as the main options in the run game.
Of course, Bucky Irving is out with a messed-up foot.
Bowles was asked today about attacking Seattle’s defense with White and Tucker.
“Rachaad [White] and most of them have played before, other than Josh [Williams] — he has not played before,” Bowles said. “Everybody else we have played with before, we think [they] can do a hell of a job, so we feel good about them playing.”
Then, Bowles addressed using Tucker more often, as Joe wrote earlier after pressing Bowles yesterday on Tucker’s usage.
Tucker usage is tricky because when when he is on the field the Bucs are pretty much tipping pitches, which most sane offensive coordinators hate to do.
Tucker struggles in pass protection The last thing the beat-up Bucs need to do is geet Baker Mayfield beat up more. That is a real danger if Tucker is asked to pass block.
Would Joe like to see Tucker get more carries? Sure, on running downs.
