Mar'Keise Irving Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (back, hip) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Todd Bowles said earlier this week that they'd need to see how Irving's back fares over the course of the week before determining his status for Sunday's game vs. the Chargers. Consider him truly questionable for now.

Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles said Monday that RB Bucky Irving's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Chargers is uncertain. "We gotta see how it feels," Bowles said of Irving's back. "If we can get it loosened up, he should be okay. If not, we’ll see how the week goes." We'll track the rookie's status throughout this week, but fantasy owners should be lining up alternate plans in case Irving can't go. His absence would make RB Rachaad White a strong fantasy start.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Raiders with a back injury. He entered this one questionable with back and hip injuries and wasn't playing much before exiting. We'll update Irving's status when we know more.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (hip, back) is active for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He only got in a limited practice on Friday and was listed as questionable, so it’s fair to assume he’ll be operating at less than 100% today. But we haven’t heard anything about his role being limited. Irving still checks in as a top-20 RB play this week.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (hip, back) is expected to play vs. the Raiders tomorrow, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Irving only got in a limited practice on Friday, so there's added risk here. But, unless we get a report on his role being limited against Vegas, he'd be tough to leave out of Week 14 fantasy lineups.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (hip, back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Raiders. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. We should get an update on Irving by Sunday morning and will have Tampa Bay’s inactives by 11:30 am. If he ends up missing this one, Rachaad White would be a borderline RB1 and Sean Tucker at least a RB3 or Flex option.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (hip, back) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He played through these injuries last week but isn't guaranteed to play vs. Las Vegas on Sunday. Irving's absence would leave Tampa's backfield to Rachaad White and Sean Tucker. We'll update Irving's status again by Friday afternoon.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (hip, back) did not practice on Wednesday. He played into overtime last week, so we're not expecting these issues to keep him out for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. If they did, though, RB Rachaad White would become a must-start, and RB Sean Tucker would become a viable RB3 or Flex. We'll update Irving's status again on Thursday.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving ran the ball 25 times for 152 yards and a TD. He also caught three passes for 33 yards. All of this despite a hip injury at the end of the first half that left him questionable to return. He did return and dominated the Panthers.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Panthers with a hip injury. His last touch came on a kick return at the end of the first half. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Irving returned on Tampa Bay's second possession of the second half.

Buccaneers RBs Bucky Irving, Rachaad White and Sean Tucker along with QB Baker Mayfield all scored a rushing TD against the Giants. Irving ended with 12 carries for 87 yards and caught all six of his targets for 64 yards. White ran the ball 12 times for 37 yards as well as catching his lone target for 10 yards. Tucker scored the first TD of the day with four carries for three yards.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving gashed the 49ers for 73 yards and 1 score on 13 attempts. He out-carried Rachaad White by 3 and topped him in yards per carry (5.6 vs. 3.1).

Bucs RB Bucky Irving (toe) is active for tonight's game vs. the Chiefs. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday and was listed as questionable. But Irving played well through this injury last week, totaling 84 yards on 16 touches.

Bucs RB Bucky Irving (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Chiefs. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday. HC Todd Bowles said earlier this week that this is an injury Irving will need to manage all season. He played -- and played well -- in spite of the injury last week. We're expecting Irving to play on Monday, but that late kickoff makes it a trickier situation for fantasy managers. If you're hoping to start Irving, you'd ideally have RB Sean Tucker rostered as insurance.
