Fantasy Impact:
Irving had a limited-DNP-limited series of practices heading into Week 4, a mixed bag when analyzing his health. A mid-week DNP provided a scare, but his return to limited status should provide confidence, though his movement should be monitored. The rookie out of Oregon has been the more efficient runner in Tampa so far in 2024, averaging 6.2 yards per carry, though he has been provided a much more favorable yards-before-contact average (2.16) than his teammate RB Rachaad White (-0.03). Week 4 could prove pivotal for the Tampa Bay backfield going forward with the veteran still seeing the majority of the high-value touches.
