Bucky Irving Not Expected to Practice on Wednesday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) is not expected to practice on Wednesday, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Stroud reports that Irving is "still in the rehab phase." The 23-year-old has not played since Week 4 as he battles foot and shoulder injuries. There had been hope that Irving would be ready to return for Tampa Bay's Week 10 matchup against the New England Patriots coming off the team's Week 9 bye. However, it appears that Irving's status for the game is still very much up in the air. If Irving misses a fifth consecutive game in Week 10, Buccaneers running backs Rachaad White and Sean Tucker would likely split backfield reps against New England. In Tampa Bay's Week 8 win over the New Orleans Saints, White saw 15 total touches compared to 12 for Tucker.
