STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Irving's workload surge (20+ carries in 3 of last 4 games) has restored fantasy trust.

Irving has won back fantasy manager trust this season; Week 8 marked the third time in the last four games he eclipsed 20 carries and the fifth time this season as a top-15 fantasy RB in 8 total games. The Kenneth Gainwell signing hasn't impacted his receiving profile as expected—he's maintained an 11% target share on the season on 0.17 targets per route run (48% route rate). His recent RB2 and RB8 finishes have been driven by the Bucs' commitment to the run, with only 3 pass attempts in Week 8 and under 20 total pass attempts across Weeks 7 and 8 combined. While that passing volume is unsustainable, the Bucs should continue to ride Irving given his productivity.
