Bucky Irving is a good player, but the opener on the road in Cincinnati seems daunting. The Bengals' defensive line was rebuilt over the offseason. I expect them to dominate in the trenches and offer little room for Irving to operate. The addition of Kenny Gainwell will cut into Irving's passing-down work, too.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Irving's road matchup vs. Cincinnati's rebuilt D-line and Gainwell competition limit upside.

Bucky Irving faces a daunting Week 1 matchup on the road in Cincinnati. The Bengals' defensive line was rebuilt over the offseason and is expected to dominate in the trenches, offering little room for Irving to operate. Additionally, the addition of Kenny Gainwell will cut into Irving's passing-down work, further limiting his fantasy upside in this unfavorable matchup.
