His 175 yards and two touchdowns were by far his best marks through the first five weeks and will likely be his season-highs when we look back at the 2026 campaign. That's why he's being featured in this space. It's not a knock on Irving, simply a value play.

Irving's 175-yard game is an outlier; sell high before regression to RB2 range.

Irving looked incredible in the Bucs' Thursday night win over the Cowboys with 175 yards and two touchdowns, by far his best marks through the first five weeks and likely his season-highs. However, the source recommends selling high on this outlier stat line that occurred in a prime-time game against a very friendly defense. Questions remain about whether Irving will handle goal-line work after Sean Tucker took those snaps just a week prior. This was also Irving's first 100-yard game since 2024, so expectations should be tempered. The source views Irving as a fantasy RB2 and recommends packaging him with another piece to send out offers for a top-12 RB or WR.
