Irving shared time in Week 1; his fantasy upside hinges on workload and efficiency as TB navigates protection and potential game-script shifts.

Irving is part of a backfield mix; anticipate committee usage against a Texans run defense that backs a stronger pass game, limiting clear takeover opportunities.

Irving is the clearer top option in TB’s backfield, with Tucker as a backup insurance policy. Irving’s role and production drive Tucker’s dynasty value, making Irving the focal point for TB’s rushing attack and the primary dynasty asset in this specific backfield dynamic.

Irving rode volume in Week 1 but was hampered by efficiency and a difficult matchup. The Texans’ front four plus Will Anderson Jr. could challenge his production; still, his 74% rushing share and 13% target share keep him in the mix with solid volume upside if he converts yardage.

Irving adds depth at the backfield, offering ball security and multi-faceted usage in a run-pass option attack that can surprise opponents.
