Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the host Seattle Seahawks, head coach Todd Bowles announced Friday.

Per an ESPN report, Irving could also miss the team's Week 6 game against the visiting San Francisco 49ers on Oct. 5 as he deals with a sprain in his left foot.

Irving, on crutches and wearing a walking boot earlier in the week, joined wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring), safety Christian Izien (quadriceps) and cornerbacks Jamel Dean (hip) and Benjamin Morrison (hamstring) in sitting out practice on Friday. All five players were ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks (3-1).

Rachaad White, Sean Tucker and undrafted rookie Josh Williams are expected to handle the rushing responsibilities on Sunday for Tampa Bay (3-1).
