Bucky Irving Hoping To Build On Successful Rookie Season
Tampa Bay Buccaneers second-year running back Bucky Irving took over the lead role in the backfield after the Week 11 bye and didn't look back, winning fantasy leagues all over for managers. Irving finished his rookie season with 1,122 rushing yards and eight touchdowns while adding 392 receiving yards. The 22-year-old will split work with Rachaad White and Sean Tucker again, but figures to take the bulk of the workload after impressing down the stretch of the 2024 season. Irving took 32% of the team's rush attempts after the Week 11 bye while White took 29% and Tucker took 10%. For Irving to pay off at cost, he is going to have to remain hyper-efficient on a per-touch basis or he is going to have to grow the gap between himself and White. New offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard has already made comments noting that this is a committee, which could scare managers away from Irving's Round 2 ADP.
