Bucky Irving
RB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Availability
Bucky Irving ran 19 times for 71 yards in the Bucs' 23-20 loss to Carolina. He was not targeted in the passing game.
Fantasy Impact
Irving's upside has been extremely limited in the last few weeks. He's seen his receptions go down from two to one to zero in the last three games. What's worse, he's had Sean Tucker vulturing touchdowns the last two weeks and Rachaad White has still been good on his limited workload. Fantasy managers longing for Irving's return are suddenly at a loss for what to do with him now that he's healthy. You are likely starting him given his upside, but it will be tough to trust him.
Bucky Irving rushed the ball 16 times for 60 yards and caught 1-of-3 targets for 11 yards in Thursday night's 29-28 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Fantasy Impact
Irving had a disappointing game on Thursday night. He saw the vast majority of touches in Tampa Bay's backfield, but he was only able to grind out 77 total yards to go with one reception and no touchdowns. He should play better than this moving forward, especially given how good his workload looks at this point.
Bucky Irving was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated injury report.
Fantasy Impact
Irving has continued to play through the shoulder injury that caused him to miss time. He should remain a full-go for Thursday's game against the Falcons.
Bucky Irving rushed for 55 yards on 15 carries in Tampa Bay's 24-20 loss to the Saints. He caught 2-of-3 targets for 26 yards and a touchdown.
Fantasy Impact
Irving found the end zone on a 24-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter. The Buccaneers split the bulk of the carries during Sunday's game, as the passing attack struggled to come from behind in the rainy weather in Tampa. Irving will look to bounce back against the Falcons in Week 15.
Bucky Irving is off the injury report for Sunday's game against the Saints.
Fantasy Impact
Irving made his return last week where he found the end zone. He should be healthier this week where he'll be an RB1 play for fantasy managers.
