American slang, primarily used in hip-hop and urban contexts, meaning lying low, staying hidden, or deliberately keeping a low profile. Someone who is ducked off has withdrawn from visibility — either to avoid trouble, maintain privacy, or simply step back from the scene for a while. The phrase conveys intentional concealment rather than mere absence.

After the drama went public he stayed ducked off for weeks, not answering calls or posting anything.
Origin: From 'duck' (to avoid or evade, as in 'duck down') + 'off' (away, absent); the compound suggests deliberate withdrawal from view. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora.
