Tampa Bay Buccaneers

5 Notes from Bucs at Giants | Week 12

In the Buccaneers dismantling of the Giants in Week 12, 30-7, five notes stood out for the visiting team at MetLife Stadium

Week 12 Notes

1. Bucky Irving had a season-best 151 yards from scrimmage in Sunday's win over the Giants (87 rushing, 64 receiving). His 56-yard rush in the fourth quarter matched the longest run of the season for Tampa Bay. He showcased his prowess at forcing missed tackles in space and plowing his way through the interior with contact balance and leg drive.

2. The Buccaneers are the first team this season with a rushing touchdown from four different players in the same game (Baker Mayfield, Bucky Irving, Sean Tucker and Rachaad White). In addition, 11 different players recorded a reception, which tied for the team's most ever in a single game. Tampa Bay totaled 450 yards of offense, the team's third-most in a game during the 2024 slate.

3. Lavonte David forced a fumble inside the redzone that was recovered by Calijah Kancey. David now has 31 career forced fumbles, tying T.J. Watt for the second-most among active players and trailing only Khalil Mack (32).

4. Tampa Bay's defense limited the Giants to just 45 yards of offense in the first half - the fewest allowed by Tampa Bay in any half this season, and its fewest in any half since 11/15/20 vs. Carolina (35 yards allowed in the 2nd Half).

5. In just his sixth game of the season, Calijah Kancey registered his fifth sack on the year to tie for the team lead. Kancey's 5.0 sacks in 2024 have established a new single-season career high.
