Bucky Irving

Well, I was wrong about Irving's workload last week. I thought he would be more limited than he was. Irving played 44% of the snaps and rattled off 17 touches and 113 total yards. It was his second 100-yard rushing day of the season. Since Week 8, Irving has averaged 15.7 touches and 96.2 total yards as the RB11 in fantasy points per game. During those seven games, among 36 qualifying backs, Irving has ranked 12th in explosive run rate, fourth in missed tackles forced per attempt, and first in yards after contact per attempt. Irving is in the RB1/2 mix again in Week 16. Since Week 10, Dallas has allowed the 12th-most rushing yards per game, the sixth-highest explosive run rate, and the seventh-highest success rate to gap runs (since Week 10, Irving 58.8% gap).
