Bucky Irving Misses Wednesday's Buccaneers Practice Due to Illness

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving did not practice Wednesday due to an illness, one of five players sidelined by sickness to begin the week. It is early enough in the preparation window that fantasy managers need not panic, but additional missed sessions would elevate concern. If Irving cannot suit up Sunday against the Panthers, teammates Kenny Gainwell and Sean Tucker are expected to absorb increased backfield workloads.
