Bucky Irving

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Bucky Irving (hip/back) is expected to play in Week 15 against the Chargers.

Irving’s back injury tightened up on him early in Week 14, forcing him to leave the game. He was listed as questionable to return but never did so. Irving would go on to miss two practices before getting in a very limited session on Friday. The team listed him as questionable at the end of the week. Irving will give it a go, but the risk of an in-game injury is uncomfortably high. He will likely give up more snaps than usual to Rachaad White as well. Irving was on track for a weekly RB1 ranking before suffering the back injury. He will spend a week in the RB2 ranks for his date with the Chargers.
