News

  • Toe injury may linger all season

    Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Thursday that Irving (toe) may not practice until closer to the end of Week 9 preparations and that he'll likely have to deal with his toe injury all season, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Irving played this past weekend after logging a DNP-DNP-LP practice pattern, and Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports that a similar ramp-up regimen will likely be employed in advance of Monday's matchup against the Chiefs. It wouldn't ultimately be surprising to see Irving regularly practice in such a capacity throughout the season, given Bowles' comments. During Week 8's loss to the Falcons, Irvin rushed nine times for 44 yards and brought in all seven targets for 40 yards,…read more

  • Garners 84 total yards in loss

    Irving (toe) rushed nine times for 44 yards and brought in all seven targets for 40 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

    Analysis: Irving overcame his questionable designation due to a toe injury to post a team-high rushing yardage total and also established a new career high in receptions. The rookie has also now logged at least nine carries in six consecutive contests, which, when combined with his relatively reliable pass-catching role, affords him a solid fantasy floor despite the timeshare with Rachaad White. Irving should be in even better health for a Week 9 road showdown against the Chiefs on Monday night, Nov. 4.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Irving (toe) is listed as active Sunday against the Falcons, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The rookie fourth-round pick thus will be available as part of a three-pronged backfield along with Rachaad White and Sean Tucker. Through seven contests this season, Irving is averaging 67.9 yards from scrimmage per game and has scored three rushing touchdowns.

  • Expected to play Week 8

    Irving (toe), who is questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, is expected to suit up, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Irving sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday before turning in a limited practice Friday, which appears to be enough for him to take the field against the Falcons. The rookie running back is officially questionable for the contest, though head coach Todd Bowles has expressed optimism this week that Irving will be able to suit up. If he does indeed play, Irving is expected to be part of a three-man committee in Tampa Bay's backfield along with Rachaad White and Sean Tucker.

  • Questionable, but likely to play

    Irving (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, but Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that the running back is likely to play Week 8, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Analysis: After he was listed as a non-participant on practice reports issued Wednesday and Thursday, Irving helped assuage some of the concern about his health by practicing Friday as a limited participant. Bowles also allayed some more fears about Irving's injury, noting that the rookie isn't dealing with turf toe and should be good to go for Sunday, "barring anything happening." Official word on his status should arrive when Tampa Bay releases its inactive list 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET…read more

  • Back at practice Friday

    Irving (toe) is participating in Friday's practice, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Analysis: Irving sat out practice both Wednesday and Thursday, so it's encouraging to see him retake the field prior to Week 8 action against the Falcons. Alongside Rachaad White and Sean Tucker, Irving contributed as part of a three-man backfield committee during Monday's loss to the Ravens. If Irving were to miss time, White and Tucker would figure to benefit from increased touches, and with both Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle) unavailable versus Atlanta, the Buccaneers could lean…read more

  • Sitting out another practice

    Irving (toe) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Analysis: Irving has opened Week 8 prep with two straight absences from practices, potentially putting his availability for Sunday's game against the Falcons in peril. The Buccaneers went with a three-man committee at running back in the team's Week 7 loss to the Ravens, but if Irving ends up sitting out against Atlanta, more snaps and touches would be available for both Rachaad White and Sean Tucker.

  • Misses practice with toe injury

    Irving was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report due to a toe injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The Buccaneer opened Week 8 prep with a walk-through practice after losing to the Ravens on Monday, but Irving would have had his reps capped had Tampa Bay held a traditional practice. Irving took 12 touches for 77 yards and a touchdown in the 41-31 loss to Baltimore, playing 36 percent of snaps on offense while splitting playing time with Rachaad White (47 percent snaps, 16 touches) and Sean Tucker (19 percent snaps, six touches).

  • Solid performance in loss

    Irving rushed nine times for 23 yards with a touchdown and brought in all three targets for 54 yards in the Buccaneers' 41-31 loss to the Ravens on Monday.

    Analysis: Irving logged one fewer carry than Rachaad White but four more than Sean Tucker as head coach Todd Bowles held true to his pledge to give all three backs opportunities. Irving was the only one of the trio to cross the goal line as a runner, recording his third rushing TD of the season from one yard out with just under four minutes remaining. Irving's work as a pass catcher also was encouraging, as he established a new career high in receiving yards. All three backs could be involved again in a…read more

  • To share work with Tucker and White

    Coach Todd Bowles said Thursday that Irving, Sean Tucker and Rachaad White (foot) will all get playing time once White is healthy, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Analysis: White's Week 6 absence opened the door for Irving's first career start, and while the rookie responded with 105 total yards and a touchdown on 64 percent snap share, it was ultimately Tucker who stole the show with 192 yards and two scores on 38 percent of snaps. White is probably still the best option on passing downs, which mean he's unlikely to be phased out entirely once he recovers from his foot injury. Bowles used the term "hot hand" to describe his coaching staff's plan for the…read more

  • Strong showing as lead back

    Irving rushed 14 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and secured both targets for 24 yards in the Buccaneers' 51-27 win over the Saints on Sunday. He also returned two kickoffs for 44 yards.

    Analysis: Irving opened the game as the No. 1 back due to Rachaad White (foot) being inactive, and although he was ultimately outshined by a stellar performance from backfield mate Sean Tucker, the rookie still turned in a productive performance. Irving's carry and yardage totals were a career high, and he recorded his second touchdown of the season on a one-yard run in the fourth quarter. Irving will be in line to share backfield duties with either Tucker or White again in a Week 7 home matchup against…read more

  • Likely starting with White out

    Irving is slated to be the Buccaneers' primary running back Sunday at New Orleans with Rachaad White (foot) inactive, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Analysis: This was more or less expected when Tampa Bay listed White as doubtful for Week 6 action on Friday's injury report. With White out of the picture for at least one game, Irving will man the backfield and could be in line for a breakout performance considering the rookie fourth-rounder has averaged 5.6 yards on his 44 carries through five contests in his career to date. Sean Tucker and practice-squad call-up D.J. Williams are on hand for any RB reps that don't go to Irving.

  • First career start imminent

    Irving is in line to lead the Buccaneers backfield Sunday at New Orleans with Rachaad White (foot) listed as doubtful for the contest, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: White managed just one limited session (Wednesday) this week as he tends to a foot injury, and while coach Todd Bowles called him a game-time decision Friday, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports, White's ensuing listing indicates he's trending toward inactive status. The Buccaneers have a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, so the situation should receive clarity about 90 minutes prior. Assuming White is included among the team's inactives, Irving would be slated for his first career start and a majority…read more

  • 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.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • 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.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • 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.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • 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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Status in question for Sunday

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

    Analysis: 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…read more

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

    Analysis: 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.

  • 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.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • Limited with hamstring injury

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

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • Outshines White in loss

    Irving rushed nine times for 70 yards and brought in all three targets for 14 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. He also returned one kickoff for 27 yards.

    Analysis: Irving outdid backfield mate Rachaad White on the ground by a comfortable margin, with the latter mustering only 17 yards on six carries. Irving displayed some shiftiness and quickness during his game-long 32-yard run, traits that White hasn't displayed on any run yet through three games. Given Sunday's results, it appears Irving may be in the midst of a takeover of the lead-back job from White, with the two possibly swapping depth-chart slotting going into a Week 4 home matchup against the…read more

  • Contained in Week 2 win

    Irving rushed seven times for 22 yards and wasn't targeted during the Buccaneers' 20-16 win over the Lions on Sunday.

    Analysis: Irving saw just over half (17) of backfield mate Rachaad White's (groin) 33 snaps from scrimmage, but the latter missed a handful of plays in the first half due to his injury. Irving already seems to be locked into a reliable complementary role at minimum, and there's certainly a possibility his participation expands during a Week 3 home matchup against the Broncos if White is limited in any way.

  • Leading rusher on nine carries

    Irving ran the ball nine times for 62 yards and caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Irving outperformed starter Rachaad White (15/31/0) on the ground, but the inverse could be said for their production as pass catchers. It was a strong start for the rookie fourth-round selection, as he will continue to be mixed in the offense as the season rolls along. Irving could be worth a look in deeper formats in the short term as the Buccaneers head into a Week 2 matchup against the Lions.

  • Records 31 total yards in win

    Irving rushed six times for 26 yards and brought in his only target for five yards in the Buccaneers' 24-14 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday night.

    Analysis: The rookie had drawn the start in the first two preseason games, but Rachaad White saw his first and only action of the exhibition slate Friday and was the first running back in. Irving checked in on the second possession and put together another solid performance relative to opportunity, and he appears set to start the regular season as the clear-cut No. 2 back behind White.

  • Starts again Saturday night

    Irving rushed six times for 26 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-7 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Saturday night.

    Analysis: The rookie drew another start with Rachaad White sitting out, and Irving was able to deliver a solid performance with a team-high number of carries. Irving has handled himself well over his first two preseason games and remains on track to serve as the primary complement alongside White, who should enjoy a robust role within new coordinator Liam Coen's offense.

  • Solid showing in preseason start

    Irving rushed six times for 28 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for no gain in the Buccaneers' 17-14 preseason win over the Bengals on Saturday night. He also returned one kickoff for 22 yards.

    Analysis: Irving drew the start due to Rachaad White being held out, and the rookie responded with an impressive showing in his first taste of NFL on-field action. The Oregon product also capped off the Buccaneers' only scoring drive of the first half with a five-yard touchdown run late in the first quarter. Irving has reportedly been impressing in training camp practices as well, and he increasingly appears likely to open the season as the No. 2 back due to veteran Chase Edmonds (undisclosed) having…read more

  • Tailor-made for new run scheme

    Irving, who the Buccaneers selected in the fourth round out of Oregon in the 2024 NFL Draft, has looked like an ideal fit for the versatile run scheme within new offensive coordinator Liam Coen's system, Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The rookie surpassed the 1,000-yard mark on the ground in each of his last two seasons with the Ducks, making him quite the potential value pick in the fourth round. In his first pro season, Irving is expected to fill a solid complementary role alongside Rachaad White, who he boasts a very similar skill set to, albeit at a slighter frame of 5-foot-10, 195 pounds. Irving also is very familiar with many of the run concepts in Coen's scheme from his college days, and Dix notes the rookie has…read more
