What to know
The Buccaneers are on a two-game winning streak fueled by the return of receiver Mike Evans and rookie running back Bucky Irving.
Irving has opened up an explosive rushing attack for Tampa Bay as he recorded his first 150+ rushing yard game in the team's overtime win against the Carolina Panthers, earning him a nomination alongside Raiders tight end Brock Bowers for Rookie of the Week. Over the team's past two games, Irving has totaled 337 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. His 150+ scrimmage yards in back-to-back games made him the first rookie to do so since Miles Sanders in 2019.
Evans returned to the lineup two weeks ago after missing three games with a hamstring injury and immediately was back to making an impact. The Panthers struggled to contain him in Week 13 as he posted a season-high 118 receiving yards and a one-handed touchdown grab on eight catches. The Buccaneers are 6-3 this season when Evans is active and 6-1 in games in which he has five-plus targets this season.
