Doing his best to emphatically settle the debate on who will be the best running back to enter the league from the 2024 NFL Draft, Tampa Bay rookie Bucky Irving put together the best performance of his young career in their Week 13 matchup with the Panthers. Finishing with 185 yards of total offense, Irving carried the load for the Buccaneers in this one, toting the rock 25 times for 152 yards on the ground, scoring once, and also added 33 yards through the air on three catches. Behind his spectacular performance, Tampa Bay was able to win a tight game over Carolina in overtime, 26-23, on Dec. 1, 2024.
