Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving is trending towards making his first career start during Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Fellow back Rachaad White (foot) has been limited to one practice this week and is considered a game-time decision for Week 6. If White sits, Irving is expected to get a majority of the snaps in the backfield. He has been effective this season with 247 yards on 44 carries, which is 5.6 yards per carry. The Saints defense is middle of the road when it comes to defending against the run. Irving should be to find success and is in the RB2 conversation, assuming White is unable to play.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis remains one of the best running back bench stashes across the league as the NFL enters Week 5. Under offensive coordinator Joe Brady, the Bills lean on James Cook and the running game. The rookie has been called upon to spell Cook on early downs. Veteran Ty Johnson would command the passing downs work if Cook suffered an injury. Blowouts have given Davis several opportunities, averaging over eight carries per game over the last three contests. In a closer game, his touches are likely cut in half. Keep Davis on fantasy football benches against Houston.
