Tampa Bay Buccaneers star running back Bucky Irving has been out injured with both a foot and a shoulder injury for about a month. He hasn't played for this high powered Buccaneers offense since Sept. 28 when the Bucs lost 31-25 to reigning Super Bowl champions the Philadelphia Eagles.
A 1,100 yard rusher in his rookie season, Irving has been one of the stars of this Bucs offense and an important part of Baker Mayfield setting up the vertical passing offense. The Bucs haven't been the same on that side of the ball with all their injuries, and whlie another rusher, Sean Tucker, has risen recently to become a star to watch, Irving has still 100 percent been missed by Tampa Bay.
