From the article

Tucker is staying on the team but needed to drop his salary to a fully-guaranteed $2.5M. He won't be the Bucs' RB2 with Kenny Gainwell complementing starter Bucky Irving, but Tucker could have a miniature role as the RB3 in particular situations.

Tucker takes pay cut to stay; RB3 role with short-yardage upside.

Tucker remained on the Buccaneers after taking a pay cut from $3.5M to $2.5M (fully guaranteed), equivalent to low-end RB2 veterans. He won't be the RB2 with Kenny Gainwell complementing starter Bucky Irving, but could have a miniature role as the RB3 in short-yardage situations. He led the team in inside-the-five-yard-line carries from Week 13 onward last year when Irving was healthy.
