Buccaneers running backs Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell did something yesterday that hadn’t been done by two Bucs running backs since 1998. They both rushed for 100 yards in the same game in the teams 16-0 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

The last two Bucs running backs to do that were Mike Alstott and Warwick Dunn back on November 1, 1998 against the Minnesota Vikings.
