Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving's Week 5 status is uncertain due to a foot/ankle injury suffered in last week's loss to the Eagles, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Irving is still getting additional opinions on the injury and hasn't been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. "But he’s sore and his status is up in the air," Garafolo adds. We'll keep a close eye on this one throughout the week, but RBs Rachaad White and Sean Tucker need to be rostered in virtually all fantasy leagues. White would be the better fantasy bet if Irving misses time, but Tucker would also figure into the backfield on early downs. Remember that he exploded for 192 total yards and two TDs on 17 touches when White missed Week 6 last year.
