  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Late fumble mars night

    Irving rushed nine times for 44 yards and brought in both targets for 12 yards in the Buccaneers' 36-30 overtime loss to the Falcons on Thursday night. He also returned one kickoff for 39 yards and lost a fumble.

    Irving logged one fewer carry than backfield mate Rachaad White, who gained 28 additional rushing yards and also had one more catch on the night. Additionally, Irving had an especially untimely fumble following a seven-yard run with just under three minutes remaining, with Jessie Bates stripping the rookie of the ball as it appeared Tampa Bay could potentially be moving into position to either run out the clock, or at minimum, add three points to a 30-27 lead. Despite the miscue, Irving did have yet another efficient rushing performance, but with White also impressing while averaging over 7.0 yards per carry, it appears to the two will continue in a near-even timeshare during a Week 6 road divisional contest against the Saints on Sunday, Oct. 13.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Ready to go in Week 4

    Irving (hamstring) is active for Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Eagles, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    The rookie was able to practice on only two occasions during Week 4 prep, and in a limited fashion at that. However, reports earlier Sunday had indicated Irving was in line to play, and his active status now is official. The Oregon product has proven immediately effective at the NFL level while averaging a stellar 6.2 yards per carry over his first three games, but Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports head coach Todd Bowles plans to continue using fellow back Rachaad White, who's also active Sunday after dealing with a bout of food poisoning, and Irving together in much the same way as he has over the first three contests.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Continues impressing in Week 4 win

    Irving rushed 10 times for 49 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for six yards in the Buccaneers' 33-16 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

    Irving and backfield mate Rachaad White curiously finished with an identical rushing line, with the key exception that Irving was the only one of the two to find the end zone. The rookie recorded his first NFL touchdown on a one-yard scoring run just past the midway point of the third quarter, and he continued to display a welcome knack for efficiency. Sunday's rushing workload marked a new high for Irving as well, and it will be interesting to see how the ground-game hierarchy shakes out in a Week 5 road battle against the Falcons on Thursday night.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Expected to play Sunday

    Irving (hamstring) is listed as questionable but is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Eagles, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Irving managed a limited practice Friday after sitting out Thursday's practice. He faces an Eagles run defense that has allowed 5.2 yards per carry this season, though they were more efficient in Week 3 against the Saints. Teammate Rachaad White (illness) is also questionable but is expected to play as well.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Status in question for Sunday

    Irving (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Eagles.

    Irving sandwiched a pair of limited practices around a DNP on Thursday due to a hamstring injury this week, leaving his status up in the air heading into the weekend. Through three games to start his career, the rookie fourth-rounder has been a regular in the Buccaneers offense, turning 30 touches into 182 yards from scrimmage. Irving's status won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but if he's available he may continue to make inroads in Tampa Bay's backfield, which currently is led by Rachaad White and his 2.1-yards-per-carry average.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Returns to practice

    Irving (hamstring) returned to practice Friday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Irving was a limited participant Wednesday before sitting out entirely Thursday, but he said he feels "pretty great" and should be ready for Sunday's game against Philadelphia. Auman reports that Irving seemed to be moving around without any limitations during the early portion of practice Friday.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Limited with hamstring injury

    Irving was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.

    Irving displayed no sign of being limited by injury in Tampa Bay's 26-7 loss to Denver on Sunday, when he took nine carries for 70 yards and caught three passes for 14 yards while playing 32 percent of the snaps on offense. Rachaad White took more than twice as many snaps (73 percent) but received three fewer carries and one fewer touch than Irving, adding more fuel to speculation that the rookie may eventually take over as Tampa Bay's lead back. It's unclear at this point if Irving's hamstring injury will be a factor in determining the two backs' respective workloads during a Week 4 home game against the Eagles.

  • Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Sits out practice Thursday

    Irving (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday but said that he feels "pretty great" and expects to be available for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    While Irving's optimism about his hamstring offers some reassurance, fantasy managers will still want to keep close tabs on the running back's activity at Friday's practice, which will likely determine whether he carries a designation into Sunday. Irving didn't offer much detail on how or when he injured his hamstring, but he may have gotten hurt at some point during Wednesday's practice, given that he was listed as a limited participant for that session before not practicing in any fashion a day later. The rookie fourth-round pick is coming off an impressive performance in the Buccaneers' Week 3 loss to the Broncos in which he carried nine times for 70 yards and recorded three receptions for 14 yards. According to Smith, head coach Todd Bowles said Monday that Irving has earned more snaps after his big Week 3 effort, but the Buccaneers are still viewing Rachaad White as their starting running back.
