• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Garners 81 total yards, TD in loss

  22H ago • By RotoWire

  Irving rushed 15 times for 55 yards and brought in two of three targets for 26 yards a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 24-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday. Irving had elevated expectations heading into the divisional matchup given some of the Saints' troubles defending the run this season, but New Orleans did a reasonably effective job while limiting him to a stingy 23 yards on the 14 carries he logged outside of his game-long 32-yard run. Irving did record his third receiving touchdown of the season on a 24-yard catch and run in the first quarter, helping to salvage his fantasy day. Irving's opportunities on the ground were somewhat capped due to a surprising game script that saw Tampa Bay trailing through more than half of the fourth quarter, but he'll have a good chance to bounce back in a Week 15 home matchup against a vulnerable Falcons run defense on Thursday night.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Limited listing Wednesday

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Irving (shoulder) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough. Making his first appearance since Week 4 this past Sunday against the Cardinals, Irving led the Buccaneers backfield to the tune of 19 touches for 81 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD on a 52 percent snap share. His previous seven-game absence was induced by a subluxation of his left shoulder and a left foot sprain, the former of which is impacting his practice reps to kick off Week 14 prep. Irving will have two more chances to get back to full this week before the team potentially tags him with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Saints.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Deemed questionable, should play

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Irving (shoulder/foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Arizona, with the expectation that he'll return to action after logging full practices all week, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports. Irving won't necessarily return to his pre-injury role but should at least be back in the mix as a significant part of Tampa Bay's offense. His impressive fantasy production late last season and into this September makes him a viable lineup option in nearly any format despite workload uncertainty in the first game back from a two-month absence. Sean Tucker supplanted Rachaad White as the lead back during that time, potentially setting up a three-headed backfield now that Irving is expected to be active ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.

• Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Logs full walkthrough

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Irving (shoulder/foot) was a full participant at Wednesday's walkthrough. After being listed as limited on the Buccaneers' five previous injury reports, Irving finally was able to log an uncapped session to begin Week 13 prep, seemingly putting him on a path for his first game action since Week 4. He missed the last eight seven games due to a subluxation in his shoulder and a sprained left foot, so he may not take on his normal role as Tampa Bay's lead runner Sunday against the Cardinals. In such a scenario, fellow RBs Sean Tucker and Rachaad White would be available for any snaps and touches that don't go to Irving.
