2024 Fantasy Outlook
Irving is a skilled player, both as a runner and receiver, and he was highly productive at both Minnesota and Oregon. The question of his NFL viability is less certain, as Irving tumbled to the fourth round of the 2024 Draft after posting disappointing numbers at the combine. Fellow former Pac-12 back Myles Gaskin could be a cautionary tale -- Gaskin was an exceptionally productive four-year player at Washington, yet in the NFL a lack of power and speed has caught up to him. Following a 4.55-second 40 time at 192 pounds, Irving heads to the NFL with some of the same concerns. He's unlikely to challenge incumbent starter Rachaad White in any meaningful way, but Irving could earn a change-of-pace role in an offense that otherwise lacks backfield talent. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Limited Wednesday
Irving (back/hip) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Irving has been playing through a few health concerns for some time now, but he hasn't been inactive yet in his rookie season. He's also recorded two 100-yard efforts on the ground over the last three games, including a 17-touch, 113-yard performance in this past Sunday's win over the Chargers. In the end, Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not Irving enters Sunday's contest in Dallas with a designation.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Growing into expanded role
Coach Todd Bowles believes that Irving is comfortable in the offense and could continue to see his role expand, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Irving has slowly boosted his role in the Buccaneers' backfield as the season has progressed, but he saw his usage jump significantly in the team's Week 13 overtime win. He earned a career-high 25 carries and racked up 152 yards, and Bowles' comments suggest he'll continue to serve as Tampa Bay's lead back. One complicating factor is that Irving is currently dealing with a hip injury, though he's downplayed the significance of the issue.
