Bucky Irving is showcasing his versatility.
Although he can catch passes, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ rookie running back is a swift and cunning runner. Against the New York Giants on Sunday, the former Oregon Ducks standout scored a 6-yard touchdown run in the second quarter.

The Buccaneers led the struggling Giants 17-0 after Irving’s touchdown.
At the half, Irving had amassed 64 yards from a team-high six receptions and 23 yards from six carries. He is only one reception away from his career-best seven catches in a Week 8 defeat to Atlanta, and his receiving yards are at a career high.
The Giants’ halftime total of 45 yards is less than Irving’s 87 total yards from scrimmage.
