Bucs HC Todd Bowles said Monday that RB Bucky Irving "has definitely earned more reps." Irving was out-snapped 42 to 18 by RB Rachaad White in the Week 3 loss to the Broncos. Bowles said that was due to his team playing from behind. White remains the preferred back in passing situations. But it sounds like that gap in snaps should shrink in the coming weeks.
Irving has out-played White in any rushing metric you look at through three weeks:
Despite the wide gap in snaps, Irving out-carried White 9 to 6 vs. the Broncos. It wouldn't be at all surprising if Irving tallies more carries than White over the remainder of the season.
White's stranglehold on the passing-down snaps will keep him on the fantasy radar and cap Irving's upside. But the rookie should be owned in basically all fantasy leagues at this point. He's looking like a weekly RB3 with the upside to climb higher.
