Bucky Irving’s lingering injury is easing ahead of the Buccaneers’ game against the 49ers

Bucky Irving has been removed from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers team injury report ahead of this weekend’s NFL game with the San Francisco 49ers after being able to participate in full practice on Friday.

What injury does Bucky Irving have?

The rookie running back has recently suffered from a persistent toe injurycausing him to miss several practice sessions leading up to the Bucs’ losses to the Atlanta Falcons and Kansas City Chiefs in Weeks 8 and 9, respectively.

before Friday, the last time the Bucs did not list Irving as “no practice” or “limited practice” was on Saturday, October 19prior to the Floridians’ Week 7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Irving manages injuries ‘all his life’

Before the Falcons game, Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles explained that Irving’s toe problem predates his arrival in the NFL as a fourth-round 2024 Draft pick. “It’s a toe injury he’s had since college, something he’s dealt with his whole life,” Bowles said, per SI.

Although officially listed as ‘doubtful’ for the Falcons and Chiefs games, Irving could appear before the two-time Super Bowl champion. But as Pro Football Network’s Kyle Soppe notes, the 22-year-old’s rushing involvement rate against Kansas City (34.6%) was his lowest since the Buccaneers’ Week 3 loss to the Denver Broncos.
