2025 Outlook
Depth Chart
Bucky Irving started his rookie season in a timeshare with Rachaad White, but by the end of November, Irving was getting the lion's share of the carries. The Bucs won six of their last seven games and leaned on the versatile youngster during those triumphs. On the ground, his 1,122 yards were 10th in the league, and through the air, his 47 receptions were the 11th best for running backs. Solid numbers for a player selected near the end of fantasy drafts -- if he was drafted at all.

After a strong close to last season, Irving enters the 2025 fantasy draft season as the unquestioned leader in the backfield for the Buccaneers. His 2024 season wrapped with rushing for at least 88 yards in five of his last seven games, only increased his stock heading into the off-season. Rachaad White will certainly see his share of playing time, but not to a degree that should negatively affect Irving. Bucky is a solid option as an RB1 for those who select a WR first. Draft him with confidence.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka gametime decisions for Monday
Evans expected to play
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Oct 18, 12:35 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
And Mike Evans, who practiced today, also is considered a pre-game decision, though it sounds like there is more hope for him than Emeka Egbuka. Even if Egbuka doesn’t play Monday night, he is expected to have a chance to play next week at New Orleans before the Buccaneers’ bye. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: It sounds like Evans is going to play barring some setback, but don't be surprised if Egbuka is on the Inactive list Monday night. Both are dealing with hamstring injuries. Bucky Irving (foot) and Chris Godwin (ankle) have both been ruled Out. Tampa Bay has a bye in Week 9.


Injury Chris Godwin ruled Out for Week 6
Fibula injury
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Oct 10, 2:27 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Buccaneers ruled out WRs Chris Godwin and Mike Evans along with RB Bucky Irving for Sunday’s game vs. the 49ers. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: Godwin missed practice this week with a fibula injury, something unrelated to his ankle injury suffered last season. HC Todd Bowles said Godwin is "week-to-week" which doesn't sound good for his chances at playing in Week 7. The Bucs have a bye in Week 9. With Godwin out, the top three receivers should be Emeka Egbuka, Sterling Shepard and rookie Tez Johnson. This would also be a situation where TE Cade Otton could see increased targets.


Injury Bucky Irving week-to-week with foot sprain
On crutches and in a walking boot
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 1, 10:58 am

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Buccaneers do not fear Bucky Irving’s foot sprain is a long-term injury, per source. The team considers it a week-to week-injury. He was spotted today at practice on crutches and in a walking boot. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: HC Todd Bowles said that a decision on Irving's playing status this week won't be made until Friday but as of now, it seems unlikely that he will play against the Seahawks. Expect Rachaad White and Sean Tucker to handle the running back duties this week. White will be in the RB2/Flex conversation given there are four teams on bye.
