RB Bucky Irving, TB (2 Viewers)

Just wanted to add that this injury has ABSOLULTELY ZERO to do with his workload. Fully expecting Bucky to have a top-5 workload when he returns.

My guess is, like Evans, they'll probably be a little patient give their record, and the division being theirs. Though, unlike Evans, Irving doesn't have a lengthy history of these kind of injuries. Based on the reports I've been hearing, I'd be expecting both back in week 7, with an outside chance of week 6 for Irving.

I've been looking at this for over a day and wondering how does travdogg know it didn't have or won't have anything to do with his workload?
I would think because it's pretty clearly the type of injury that is acute, rather than one from overuse?

No. "Lisfranc injuries can result from overuse or repetitive stress on the foot, particularly from activities like long-distance running, prolonged standing, or high-impact sports, which place sustained strain on the midfoot."

And I'm only throwing that out there. I mean, do you even know what the injury is?

So, like, no, it's not clearly anything.

Because we saw the play it happened on, and his foot got caught under someone's body. Probably could have been a penalty on the Eagles for hip drop tackling. That could have happened on the 1st play of the season to anyone.

Tampa has done nothing but increase their reliance on Irving since last December. He's the most used RB in the NFL other than CMC this season. My point was, I don't see any reason why this injury would say to them that they were overusing Irving, because it wasn't an injury due to overuse.

But it's not a lisfranc as far as we know, is it?

But I guess, if lis franc is even plausible, then your point stands.

No, but I think i covered that.

But I'm also seemingly wrong. They announced it a day-plus ago. They're calling it a "foot sprain," which I'm seeing is a "mid-foot sprain" and is caused by movement and they don't seem to be listing overuse.

But I don't think we know anything about how they will manage it, or if their medical team says overuse can lead to acute injuries, etc. That was my main point. Seemed odd to declare they'd use him the same if you really don't know.

Yeah the blanket statement of "this injury has ABSOLUTELY ZERO to do with his workload" (whether talking about the past workload causing the injury, or the injury affecting the future workload) seemed oddly certain.
 
Send in the chaplin to administer last rites

It’s Rachaad White szn
You’ve misspelled Sean Tucker. Easy mistake.

I’m not starting either of them except in best ball. Go sports and or team!
:wub:
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Rachaad White is expected to get the “vast majority of carries” in Week 5 against the Seahawks.
Bucky Irving is out with a foot injury, leaving the starting gig up for grabs. Third-string running back Sean Tucker has touched the ball once this year, while White has consistently spelled Irving when needed. Per Pelissero, the team also has a plan for Tucker, though it sounds like a minor role at most. White is locked in as an RB2 for his first start of the year.
 
Sean Tucker time!

here is a bing search showing causes of lisfranc injury


I dont know if this settles the argument but hopefully it adds some clarity.

it can happen when a large amount of weight is dropped on the foot. with a RB running between the tackles, having a lineman step on it could definitely cause this type of injury
especialy if making a cut and applying that twisting motion as mentioned.
 
Not only does he have a shoulder injury, he didn't tell the team about it, which seems to be causing drama.

Jenna Laine, ESPN
"Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving not only has a foot sprain, but he is also dealing with a shoulder subluxation that is expected to sideline him for at least two weeks, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Irving did not report to the team that he was dealing with a shoulder injury until Tuesday, sources said. He will miss Sunday's game at the Seattle Seahawks and is not expected back for next week's home game against the San Francisco 49ers."
 
Also, a weird Instagram post from Bucky:

God gave his toughest battle to his toughest soldiers. Don't cry for me when the war is over. My eyes are open to who is here for me as a football player, and who is here for me as Mar'Keise Bucky Irving.

Sounds like the drugs are kicking in...
Dude thinks his name is Mar'Keise now? Got freaking bigger problems than foot injuries.
 
SF at home, he's OUT for that
@ Detroit, he might be out for that one as well and here's why...
@ NO Saints, the Bucs can beat them without Irving
BYE WEEK

I don't see Bucky coming back until after the Bye week, that would give him time to heal and the Bucs can still win 2 out their next 3 games if they play well.
 
but he is also dealing with a shoulder subluxation
That’s a partial dislocation for those not familiar. It often is a harbinger for future dislocations, because it’s indicative of a labrum tear.

That’s how mine started. First a subluxation, then a dislocation (with a full tear) then it gets easier and easier.

The subluxation is better for FF for this year, as it heals quicker than a full dislocation, but it anlso adds short term risk to his fantasy stock when he returns, because he’s at risk for full dislocation, and further damage to the labrum/rotator cuff.

Not ideal.

His career now is on the back nine is what you're saying

That is not at all what I am saying, no. lol

I’m saying he’s at greater risk of injury now than he was before, due to the nature of this injury.
 
that would make sense, cause I had him Saquon and Breece, and all 3 arent making it easy on me.

I guess I can add Puca onto that list. YIKES!

What is the latest news on him? Any homes have some info?
Some online sports doctors still think he has another week or 2 before he's ready. They base it on TB previous ramping up of other injured players. They usually let us know when a guy will start practicing weeks before he's ready to come back. We havent heard a peep on when practice starts for him.

Apparently there’s a message from him on Instagram that he’s “good to go.” Whether or not the medical staff agrees is another concern.

Bucs also opened the practice window for RT Luke Goedeke. Huge for Tampa’s offense as backup swing tackle Charlie Heck has surrendered the most pressure in the NFL.

Bucs’ offense trending up.

Turns out that message was second-hand and dated 10/22 and not confirmed since
 
Well, my wife, who knows almost nothing about football and uses the force, says Bucky is likely to play. I ask her on some of my coinflip decisions and she stares into space and gives me the answers. I would say she's about 75% this year, which is as good or better than the "experts." So you heard it here 1st!
 
Last year I was Team White and it didn't go as planned. Decided to correct the situation this year and went Team Bucky. Next year will probably be Team No-Bucs...
