Bucky Irving Expected to Be Ready for Training Camp
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (shoulder) should be ready for training camp, per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Irving is coming off an injury-marred season in 2025, as he missed seven games due to shoulder and foot ailments. The 23-year-old's efficiency cratered when he was on the field as well, as he averaged just 3.4 yards per carry in 2025, down from 5.4 yards per carry in 2024. Tampa Bay made a big addition to its running back room in free agency, signing former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell to a two-year contract. While Gainwell will surely play a significant role, Stroud reports that Irving is still expected to open training camp as the Buccaneers' RB1. Irving's fantasy upside remains sky-high as he enters his third NFL season, but his injury history and Gainwell's presence in Tampa add some risk to Irving's profile.
