• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Compiles 83 total yards in loss

  01/13/2025 • By RotoWire

  Irving rushed 17 times for 77 yards and brought in both targets for six yards in the Buccaneers' 23-20 wild-card loss to the Commanders on Sunday night. Irving once again comfortably outpaced backfield mate Rachaad White, who logged just three total touches (one carry, two receptions). The rookie put together a solid performance that included his seventh tally of over 70 rushing yards in the last nine games. However, Irving was stuffed for a two-yard loss on a third-and-1 play at the Commanders' 12-yard line with 5:32 remaining, forcing the Buccaneers to settle for a field goal instead of extending the drive and possibly scoring a go-ahead touchdown. Irving's productive day came in the wake of a standout rookie season that exceeded expectations, during which he recorded 207 carries for 1,122 yards and eight touchdowns while adding a 47-392 receiving line on 52 targets across 17 games. Irving also turned the ball over just once (two fumbles total) and should head into his second season with a firm grasp on the No. 1 back role.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Strong day on ground in key win

  01/05/2025 • By RotoWire

  Irving rushed 19 times for 89 yards and a touchdown and brought in two of five targets for minus-5 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-19 win over the Saints on Sunday. Irving once again led the Buccaneers' ground attack on an afternoon when Rachaad White did not log a single touch. The rookie looked good on several signature explosive runs, and he scored what turned out to be the game-winning touchdown on an 11-yard rush with just under two minutes remaining. Irving figures to continue spearheading Tampa Bay's ground attack as the postseason begins for the Bucs during Super Wild Card Weekend.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Good to go for Week 18

  01/03/2025 • By RotoWire

  Irving (shoulder/shin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints. Irving took 24 touches for 190 yards in last week's 48-14 win over the Panthers, despite not playing at all in the fourth quarter. He should be busy again with the Bucs needing a win to reach the playoffs (unless Atlanta loses to Carolina in a game that's taking place at the same time).

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Stays limited Thursday

  01/02/2025 • By RotoWire

  Irving (shoulder/shin) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday. Irving followed up a capped walkthrough Wednesday with a similar amount of on-field work one day later. He hasn't been a stranger to injury reports in his rookie season due to a variety of health concerns, but Irving also hasn't missed a game for any reason. Friday's report will reveal whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game versus the Saints.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Limited Wednesday

  01/01/2025 • By RotoWire

  Irving was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to shoulder and shin injuries. Irving hasn't been a stranger to Buccaneers injury reports in his rookie season, but he's yet to miss a game. With his 113-yard effort on the ground in this past Sunday's win over the Panthers, he reached 1,000 rushing yards on the campaign. Assuming his current health concerns don't hold him back, he'll aim to build upon his 1,420 yards from scrimmage and seven rushing touchdowns in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Saints.
