Irving is a mid-tier RB2/3 in a backfield split with Gainwell and Tucker.

Bucky Irving is viewed as a fantasy RB2/3, with his outlook complicated by a significant split with Kenny Gainwell and the potential goal-line role of Sean Tucker. The Buccaneers' offensive line is strong, but the Bengals' defense has been bolstered by the addition of Dexter Lawrence, making the matchup tougher than last year's stats suggest.
