Bucky Irving

Week 16 at Dallas Cowboys

Bucky Irving is gaining some steam. He has over 100 yards in two of his last three games. He left the Raiders game early due to a hip injury but doesn't have a game designation for Sunday night. Irving should be good to go. He'll continue to split work with Rachaad White (and, to an extent, Sean Tucker), but there's enough explosiveness on this Bucs offense that both Irving and White can be RB2's this week. No team has allowed more rushing touchdowns than Dallas (22).

Week 13 at Carolina Panthers

Bucky Irving and Rachaad White were just about even in snaps and carries last week against the Giants. The difference is that Irving was much more effective on the ground -- Irving out-rushed White 88-37 -- and caught six passes to White's one. While this remains a pretty even split, Irving is taking on more of a receiving role of late with at least 40 yards in three of his last five games. Even better for Irving's fantasy owners is the Panthers are allowing the most fantasy points to running backs. Irving is a solid RB2 this week.

Week 10 vs. San Francisco 49ers

Bucky Irving is still dealing with a toe injury but the good news is he doesn't have a game designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers. He remains in a timeshare with Rachaad White with Irving getting more of the work on the ground. In fact, we have Irving and White right next to each other in this week's rankings. Both are flex options in a tougher matchup against the 49ers but it's understandably frustrating with both.
