Bucky Irving rushed 20 times for 97 yards and two scores in the Buccaneers’ Week 9 loss to the Bears, adding four catches for 28 yards.
Irving was held in check for the first three quarters outside of a short rushing touchdown, but broke several tackles to open the fourth quarter on a 25-yard gain. He scored again in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 24-24 and now has six rushing scores in 2026. It wasn’t quite the monster effort he produced against the Falcons (27/170/1) the week prior, but still a very strong fantasy day for the 24-year-old tailback. Irving should be considered as an RB1 against the Lions in Week 11 after a bye.
