Bowles: RB Bucky Irving has earned more snaps

Sep 23, 2024

Todd Bowles says rookie RB Bucky Irving has earned more snaps going forward.

Fantasy Impact:

Irving carried 9 times for 70 yards, including a 32-yard run. White carried 6 times for just 17 yards. White did haul in 5 passes to Irving's 3, but White only had 18 yards on those catches with Irving getting 14 yards. It's tough to tell just how the touches will be split up since they were essentially split in Week 3, but this news could put Irving in the flex category for Week 4, at least until we see what the Bucs plan is at RB going forward.

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
