Tuck (neck) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Browns. |
Tuck was able to log full practices both Thursday and Friday, so it's no surprise to see him take the field Sunday afternoon. The 32-year-old has nine combined tackles so far this season, and will look to build on that total in the road matchup. |

Tuck (neck) is listed as active Sunday in San Diego, Scott Bair of CSN Bay Area reports. |
Tuck won't provide much in the tackle department, but with two sacks, one interception, and one forced fumble accrued through eight games, he's a fair bet to aid IDP pursuits. |

Tuck (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns. |
With just one sack in five games, Tuck's value is not very high right now, but he'll be available Sunday if you need him. |

Tuck (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns. |
Tuck's ability to practice all week, albeit in a limited capacity, suggests a Week 8 return from the knee injury is realistic. The 31-year-old has recorded just one sack in five games, however, after notching 11 in his final year with the Giants. |

More on Tuck's Week 8 status in the coming days, but after missing this past Sunday's game against the Cardinals, the DE's presence on the field Wednesday bodes well for his chances of returning to the mix Sunday against the Browns. |

The Raiders' defense takes a Week 7 hit with the absence of Tuck on Sunday, but to date, his IDP production has been modest; 18 tackles and a sack in five games. |

Tuck recorded four tackles (two solo) and a sack in last Sunday's loss to the Patriots. |
The sack was the first of the season for Tuck, who got to the quarterback 11 times during his final campaign with the Giants. Tuck, now 31, showed his age a bit in the Raiders' first two games, failing to even touch the opposing quarterback in either contest, but he hit Tom Brady three times in Week 3. He'll continue to make for a risky DL IDP option until the team starts finding more ways to get him singled up. |

Tuck missed practice Friday with a slight groin strain, Scott Bair of CSNCalifornia.com reports. |
Coach Dennis Allen described Tuck's absence as "part real injury, part veterans' day off," so it certainly doesn't sound like anything too serious. |
Thu Mar 13 2014 | 15:03 | Justin Tuck joins Raiders for two years, $11M |
Raiders signed DE Justin Tuck to a two-year, $11 million contract. |
Tuck gave the Giants a chance to match the offer and they declined. It shows how far his stock has dropped. The league saw through his late-season contract-year push, as he compiled 9.5 sacks during the final six games of last season after recording a total of 10.5 sacks in the prior 37 games. He'll turn 31 years old later this month and was clearly seeking to max out his earning potential. Tuck knows the Raiders have no shot to compete for rings anytime soon. |

Wed Mar 12 2014 | 07:47 | Justin Tuck, Woodley are visiting the Raiders |
Free agents Justin Tuck and LaMarr Woodley are visiting the Raiders Wednesday. |
On Tuesday, Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie let his best offensive lineman (Jared Veldheer) walk, overpaid for Rodger Saffold, let reliable Rashad Jennings walk, let his best defender Lamarr Houston walk and re-signed injury-prone Darren McFadden. So how will he spend the rest of his money? Perhaps on two aging, declining edge rushers in search of a payday. Tuck, who will turn 31 later this month, looked done prior to his 9.5-sack outburst over the final six games of last year. Woodley, 29, has missed 14 games over the last three seasons. |

Tue Mar 11 2014 | 13:50 | Justin Tuck likely heading back to Giants |
According to ProFootballkTalk.com, free agent Justin Tuck is leaning toward re-signing with the Giants. |
It's not necessarily because Tuck loves New York so much. It's because he's explored the market and has been disappointed with what he's found. Per PFT, one other team is willing to pony up $3 million per season -- a very low number considering the current defensive end market. Everson Griffen got a five-year, $42.5 million deal and Michael Bennett landed four years at $28.5 million. |

Mon Mar 10 2014 | 22:42 | Report: Giants expected to re-sign DE Tuck |
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora expects the Giants to re-sign free agent DE Justin Tuck. |
Tuck's market has been ice cold since the season ended. He hasn't been linked to a single team outside of the Giants. The other 31 clubs appear to have taken notice that the soon-to-be 31-year-old notched just 10.5 sacks in the 37 games prior to his 9.5-sack outburst over the final six games last season. |

Sat Mar 8 2014 | 13:46 | Giants make Tuck offer prior to free agency |
NJ.com's Jordan Raanan reports the Giants made an offer to free agent DE Justin Tuck prior to the NFL's legal tampering window, but the two sides were unable to reach an agreement. |
It is a bit surprising considering GM Jerry Reese's insistence Tuck would be allowed to reach free agency, but that looks to be the result regardless. Tuck recorded 11 sacks in 2013, but 9.5 of those sacks game in the final six games of the season. Tuck only recorded 10.5 sacks in the prior 37 games. He is our No. 7 available free-agent defensive end. |

Jerry Reese confirmed free agent DE Justin Tuck will be allowed to test the free agent market. |
"Justin is going to go to the market and see what's out there for him," Reese said. "Free agency means free agency. It means you go out and get as much as you can." Tuck recorded 11 sacks in 2013, but 9.5 of those sacks game in the final six games of the season. Tuck only recorded 10.5 sacks in the prior 37 games. He is our No. 8 free agent defensive end. |

Fri Jan 31 2014 | 17:35 | Justin Tuck to meet with Giants in February |
The Newark Star-Ledger reports free agent DE Justin Tuck has set up a meeting with the Giants in early February to discuss a potential deal. |
Tuck is still fully expected to test the open market and has already made it clear he won't be giving the Giants a hometown discount to return. He posted 11 sacks and graded out as a top-six 4-3 end by Pro Football Focus in run defense this past season. "There's a chance, but I'm preparing myself to get to free agency," Tuck said. "We'll see what happens." |

Thu Jan 30 2014 | 11:54 | Justin Tuck guarantees he'll test the market |
Free agent DE Justin Tuck guaranteed he will be testing the market in March. |
The 30-year-old Tuck won't be giving the Giants any kind of hometown discount as he looks to maximize his money one last time. "I'm a pretty good football player," he said, "and I'm pretty sure there will be some interest in a pretty good football player." Suitors should be wary that Tuck really came on late in his contract year, posting 9.5 of his 11 sacks in the final six weeks. In his previous 37 games, he had just 10.5 sacks. |

Fri Dec 27 2013 | 08:59 | Tuck not planning to give Giants a discount |
Impending free agent LE Justin Tuck said he won't be interested in giving the Giants a "hometown discount." |
Tuck has turned back the clock this season as a 31-year-old, posting nine sacks and grading out as a top-six 4-3 end at Pro Football Focus in run defense. He's aiming for one more big contract. We wouldn't expect it to come from the Giants. The G-Men need to get younger and already have a high cap number. Jason Pierre-Paul, Mathias Kiwanuka, and Damontre Moore could handle end duties. |
