Tampa Bay Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles warned us this week that they could be headed for a “three-headed monster” at running back…and he wasn’t kidding. Although Rachaad White led the team with a 48% rushing share of the offense, both Bucky Irving (35%) and Sean Tucker (20%) were both involved.

White led the cohort with six targets on the day (71 receiving yards), seeing each of the team’s three red zone targets to the running back position, converting two for touchdowns. Irving, meanwhile, maintained the quick goal-line ability, handling each of the RB carries inside the red zone (3) and inside the 5-yard line (2), where he was able to score late in the fourth quarter.
