Smarter, Faster & Healthier, Carl Tucker Is Raring To Go

Posted Aug 18, 2018
Something didn’t feel right for Carl Tucker at some point during North Carolina blowout win at Old Dominion last September. And the Tar Heels’ tight end isn’t sure what caused the discomfort. Somewhere during the course of that game, Tucker sustained an injury to one of his triceps, but it wasn’t that serious, yet. So, he gave it a go the following week at home versus Duke.
