Tucker's deep-ball reliance clashes with 49ers' elite downfield coverage; sit him.

Tucker is the WR25 in fantasy points per game with three games with at least 18.8 PPR points this season. He has a 16.4% target share with 2.03 YPRR, six red zone targets, nine deep targets, and a 21.7% first-read share. Since Week 6, the 49ers have had the fifth-highest single-high rate (62.2%). Against single-high, Tucker has had a 20% TPRR and 2.01 YPRR. The coverage matchup is in his favor in the sense that Tucker excels against both single and two high, but as far as his downfield role, the source doesn't think he'll have success there. 31.4% of his receiving yardage has been via deep targets, but over their last five games the 49ers have held passers to the 14th-lowest passing success rate and passer rating when targeting 20-plus yards downfield. Also, over their last five games, the 49ers have held perimeter wide receivers to the tenth-fewest yards per target while ranking 15th in fantasy points per opportunity. Sit Tucker this week.
