Paces backfield in carries
Barber rushed eight times for 28 yards in the Buccaneers' 37-26 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber doubled up backfield mate Ronald Jones in carries as their timeshare continued in confounding fashion Sunday, but game script ensured neither back could be much of a factor. Barber has single-digit touches in three straight games heading into the Bucs' Week 7 bye, and the fantasy-adverse workload split between him and Jones will continue in a Week 8 matchup versus the Titans.

Finds end zone in limited usage
Barber rushed eight times for 32 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for minus-1 yard in the Buccaneers' 31-24 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber capped off a massive 17-play, 75-yard third-quarter march with a two-yard touchdown run, his second on the ground in as many games. The fourth-year back has seen single-digit carries in both of those contests, though he logged only one fewer tote than backfield mate Ronald Jones on Sunday and also saw game flow conspire against the running game overall. Barber remains a touchdown-dependent option in all formats heading into a Week 6 tilt versus the Panthers in London.

Salvages line with rushing TD
Barber rushed nine times for 19 yards and a touchdown and failed to bring in his only target in the Buccaneers' 55-40 win over the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber started the game and capped off an eight-play, 60-yard first-quarter drive with a three-yard touchdown run. However, as the game went on, Ronald Jones took on the majority of the backfield workload, ultimately logging 10 more carries than Barber. That represented the biggest disparity in opportunity between the two backs in Jones' favor this season and could be indicative of a gradual changing of the guard at running back. Barber will look to make his case and up his production in a…read more

Serviceable in Week 3 loss
Barber rushed 13 times for 48 yards and brought in both of his targets for seven yards in the Buccaneers' 32-31 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber logged one fewer carry than Ronald Jones, who was the more efficient and explosive player with a 25-yard rush and 41-yard reception. Barber did contribute several of his trademark power runs in the contest and should continue enjoying a relatively steady role, despite the fact Jones is clearly a more dynamic asset overall. The conundrum for fantasy managers will be figuring out which back will have the hot hand on any given week, as coach Bruce Arians rightfully appears to be firmly…read more

Clear-cut lead back in win
Barber rushed 23 times for 82 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for seven yards in the Buccaneers' 20-14 win over the Panthers on Thursday.
Analysis: Just four days after Barber logged only eight carries in a season-opening loss to the 49ers, he significantly outpaced backfield mate Ronald Jones on Thursday. Coach Bruce Arians had made it clear Barber would open the game and he'd ultimately stick with whichever back had the hot hand, and Barber forced the issue with a gutsy display of power running that was highlighted by his 16-yard scoring scamper up the gut in the third quarter. Barber was also taken down for a safety by Luke Kuechly…read more

Getting Week 2 start
Coach Bruce Arians said that Barber will remain the Buccaneers' starting running back for Thursday's matchup with the Panthers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barber drew the start in the 31-17 loss to the 49ers in Week 1, but was on the field for only 25 of 70 offensive plays (35.7 percent) while backups Ronald Jones (31.4 percent) and Dare Ogunbowale (38.6 percent) handled similar snap shares. Ogunbowale should remain the Bucs' top option on passing downs Thursday, but Arians indicated he plans to ride the hot hand between Barber and Jones in the run game. Though Barber managed a serviceable 33 yards on eight carries in the opener, Arians leaned on…read more

Loses work to Jones
Barber rushed eight times for 33 yards and two of four targets for 12 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-17 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber saw Ronald Jones garner 13 rushing touches to his eight, while the second-year back also took all the fourth-quarter carries. Coach Bruce Arians will naturally still utilize both of his primary backfield options, but it remains to be seen if Jones' stronger performance Sunday is parlayed into a second straight game with a heftier workload than Barber's. That much will be answered in Thursday night's Week 2 battle against the Panthers, but this could turn into an ongoing, multi-week…read more

Favored for Week 1 start
Barber likely will get the start Week 1 against San Francisco, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Stroud suggests coach Bruce Arians may use the hot-hand approach between Barber and Ronald Jones, though the latter's struggles in pass protection could keep him off the field in certain situations. The Buccaneers actually sat both running backs for their two-minute drill in the third week of the preseason, instead turning to Dare Ogunbowale on the final drive for the first-team offense. With Ogunbowale or Andre Ellington potentially getting involved, Barber won't be a lock for steady touches…read more

Limited to three rushing yards
Barber gained three yards on three carries during Friday's 13-12 preseason win over the Browns.
Analysis: Barber, who gained three yards on his first carry of the game, failed to net any yardage from his other two totes and was not involved in the passing game. He took a seat following the team's third drive. It should be noted that Barber and Ronald Jones contributed on the opening three possessions with the first-string offense in what could be a sign of things to come during the regular season. Neither back should play much, if any, during Thursday's exhibition finale against Dallas.

Tallies five yards
Barber carried the ball twice for five total yards during Friday's 16-14 preseason win over Miami.
Analysis: Both Barber and sophomore Ronald Jones received two carries during Tampa Bay's opening possession, the only one in which Jameis Winston played. It's hard to read too much into such an abbreviated performance, especially with next week's matchup in Cleveland likely representing the final dress rehearsal before the regular season. Barber has reportedly been strong through the preseason, but Jones figures to rotate in enough to dilute Barber's value as a true RB1.

Solid in limited action
Barber rushed three times for 18 yards and brought in his only target for four yards in the Buccaneers' 30-28 preseason loss to the Steelers on Friday.
Analysis: Barber looked crisp in his cuts during his time on the field on the opening series, flashing some of the same deceptive speed that he's made the norm in various training camp practices. Both Barber and primary competitor Ronald Jones II saw playing time on the first drive, and both players ultimately acquitted themselves well relative to opportunity. The two will continue their battle for the top backfield job in next Friday's exhibition against the Dolphins.

In line to start Friday
Barber is expected to start Friday's preseason game at Pittsburgh, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Coach Bruce Arians said Barber may not receive all the reps with the first-team offense, so he may be contained to just a single series in Bucs' exhibition opener. The purpose of that decision is to get second-year running back Ronald Jones some reps with the starting offensive line. For the time being, Barber remains the No. 1 RB on the depth chart, but Jones would give him a run for his money if he performs well enough in advance of the regular season.

Solid camp thus far
Barber, who's facing competition for carries from second-year pro Ronald Jones, turned in another strong practice Saturday, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Barber has been showing up in most of the practices thus far with a nice combination of his deceptive speed and power running. The Auburn product flashed some of his versatility while scoring a couple of touchdowns during a goal-line period Saturday, getting into the end zone on a dive from outside the one-yard line on the first and deftly ducking under defenders for the second score. Barber went into camp as the favorite to hang on to the top running back job for the regular season, but Jones…read more

Working on pass catching in OTAs
Barber logged plenty of pass-catching work out of the backfield during the first week of OTAs, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Coach Bruce Arians has spoken of Barber's potential as a three-down back this offseason, and the way the fourth-year pro was utilized during the first week of on-field work supports the notion he'll have a chance to earn that type of role. The Auburn product has upped his rushing yardage with each passing season, but he dropped to 3.7 yards per carry last year and has just 41 receptions in 47 career games. Arians could have a larger passing-game role in mind for Barber, who notably didn't get…read more

Stock rises after draft
The Buccaneers didn't draft any backfield competition for Barber and Ronald Jones, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Tampa Bay brass is at least being consistent after talking up Barber and Jones throughout the offseason. The former agreed to a one-year, $2.125 million contract in lieu of a restricted free-agent tender, hoping to build on a 2018 campaign in which he managed just 963 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns as a 16-game starter. Barber is a reliable player with no real hint of upside, while Jones is the exact opposite -- a 2018 second-round pick who barely played as a rookie. The Bucs hope Jones is…read more

Re-ups with Tampa
Barber agreed Wednesday with the Buccaneers on a one-year contract, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Barber showed some signs of life during the second half of the 2018 campaign, but he didn't do enough to prevent the Buccaneers from actively seeking upgrades in the backfield. Whether it's 2018 second-round pick Ronald Jones or an offseason acquisition, Barber likely will face a serious challenge for the starting job. The new contract is in lieu of a restricted free-agent tender.

Drawing praise from new coach
Coach Bruce Arians praised Barber when addressing the media at Wednesday's NFL Scouting Combine, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis: Barber has averaged just 3.8 yards per carry over the last two seasons, but he finally showed some elusiveness in 2018 by popping off four runs of 20-plus yards after logging just two such carries in his previous 31 games. While he's still a work in progress as a runner on many levels, Arians seems to place more value on Barber's improvement to that rather than the tailback's overall inefficiency. With that said, Arians will also have 2018 second-rounder Ronald Jones to utilize in the…read more

Finishes season in solid fashion
Barber rushed 15 times for 66 yards and brought in his only target for two yards in the Buccaneers' 34-32 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber's solid final game was representative of what he proved capable of this season when he received decent blocking and logged sufficient carries. Having secured the starting job over second-round pick Ronald Jones II coming out of training camp, the third-year pro remained the lead back throughout 2018 and finished with 234 carries for 871 yards (3.7 yards per rush) and five touchdowns while adding 20 receptions (on 29 targets) for 92 yards (4.6 YPC) and another score. Barber was able to…read more

Tough sledding on ground in loss
Barber rushed 17 times for 43 yards and brought in all three of his targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-20 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber was repeatedly stymied on the ground by a stingy Cowboys front, leading to fourth sub-50-yard tally of the last five games. Barber has been at 3.0 yards per carry or worse in all four contests, as the Tampa Bay offensive line has consistently had trouble creating running lanes. The 24-year-old will try to close out the season on a strong note against the Falcons in Week 17.

Solid effort in loss
Barber rushed 19 times for 85 yards and a touchdown and brought in both of his targets for four yards in the Buccaneers' 20-12 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: As has been the case in multiple games this season, Barber put together a solid game as far as efficiency is concerned, but his touches were once again limited by game flow. Barber's three-yard touchdown in the second quarter was his fourth in the last five games, and he's now averaged 4.5 yards or better in four of his last eight contests. The four-year pro figures to remain in firm possession of the lead-back role over the final two games of the season, and he'll look to continue closing out…read more

Struggles for running room in loss
Barber rushed 14 times for 42 yards and brought in one of his two targets for two yards in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: It was yet another frustrating afternoon on the ground for Barber, who found running room at a premium against one of the NFL's stingiest run defenses. The second-year back now has been under 50 rushing yards in three straight games, and he's managed no better than Sunday's 3.0 yards per carry in any of those contests. Barber has a firm grasp on the lead-back role, but there may be no other team in the league at the moment in which that job has less value. He'll have an uphill battle to improve…read more

Scores for third straight game
Barber carried 16 times for 45 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Panthers. He also lost a fumble in the 24-17 win.
Analysis: Barber averaged just 2.8 yards per carry and did little outside a long gain of 17 yards. He helped put the game away with a 1-yard touchdown plunge in the fourth quarter, giving him three rushing touchdowns in as many weeks. He could have had another score, but he fumbled at the 1-yard line to tarnish a long, methodical drive. Barber has topped 70 rushing yards just three times this season, but he continues to receive touches near the goal line thanks to the team's prolific passing attack.…read more

Cleared for Carolina game
Barber (ankle/shoulder) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barber sandwiched full practices Wednesday and Friday around a limited session Thursday. His availability never seemed to be in question, but there is some cause for concern regarding his future workload after coach Dirk Koetter said fellow running back Ronald Jones will be active this week. The rookie second-round pick poached some work from Barber in Weeks 4 through 8 before a hamstring injury knocked him out of the lineup. It may not happen this weekend, but the Buccaneers probably want to…read more

Barber (ankle/shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After opening the week as a full participant in practice Wednesday, Barber's reps were scaled back while he continues to nurse a pair of injuries. The same issues limited Barber's practice time heading into Week 11, but he suited up for both of the Buccaneers' games since that time, logging 36 carries for 153 yards.

Spearheads rushing attack in win
Barber rushed 18 times for 47 yards and a touchdown and brought in both of his targets for 16 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-9 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: Although he encountered tough sledding on the ground, Barber was able to burrow into the end zone from two yards out just before the midway point of the third quarter for his third touchdown of the season. Barber's 2.6 yards per carry marked the fourth time this season he's been under a 3.0 figure, but the 24-year-old continues to be free of any competition for his lead-back duties. He'll look to make it three straight games with a score against the Panthers in a Week 13 divisional battle.

First 100-yard game of season
Barber rushed 18 times for 106 yards and a touchdown and brought in both of his targets for four yards in the Buccaneers' 38-35 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Barber capitalized on the favorable matchup versus the Giants' vulnerable run defense, equaling a season high with a 28-yard run and eclipsing the century mark for the first time on the season. The 24-year-old has actually averaged 4.5 yards per carry or better in three of the past four contests, but game script has often conspired to limit his rushing opportunities. The third-year pro has yet to top 20 carries on the season, but on the brighter side of things, he has zero competition for…read more

Barber (ankle/shoulder) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With Ronald Jones (hamstring) out for at least one more week, Barber doesn't have much competition for carries against a Giants defense ranked 19th in yards allowed per carry (4.4) and 24th in rushing yards allowed per game (122.6). Of course, we've already seen Barber faceplant in some favorable matchups, averaging just 3.7 yards per carry and one catch per game in a pass-heavy offense.

Remains limited participant
Barber (ankle) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: After appearing on the Buccaneers' initial Week 11 injury report with ankle and shoulder concerns, only the former issue was responsible for his limited showing Thursday. Even that doesn't seem to be much of a worry for Barber at this juncture, as he's been tending to the ankle injury since the Buccaneers' Week 7 win over the Browns and hasn't missed any game action because of it.

Limited Wednesday
Barber (ankle/shoulder) was limited at Wednesday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barber has tended to an ankle injury for a few weeks at this point, but the shoulder issue is new. Still, he was able to handle individual drills at least, so it's a good bet he'll have the designations removed by the final injury report for a fourth consecutive week. Barber could have less competition for reps Sunday against the Giants if rookie Ronald Jones, who was limited in practice Wednesday with a hamstring injury, remains hindered.

Picks up 66 yards
Barber rushed for 61 yards on 13 carries and added a 5-yard catch during Sunday's 16-3 loss to Washington.
Analysis: This marked a ho-hum outing for Barber, who has just one 100-yard game and two touchdowns on the season. The third-year back has held value by essentially being the only game in town, entering Sunday with 54.5 percent of Tampa Bay's rushes on the season. Thus Jacquizz Rodgers' eight-catch, 102-yard performance on Sunday -- though it included a costly fumble -- is worth keeping an eye on. With Barber averaging just 3.7 yards per carry on the season, Tampa Bay -- now in a free fall -- might opt…read more

Good to go
Barber (ankle) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have a designation on the final injury report for Sunday's game against Washington, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barber played through the same injury last week, picking up 40 yards on 13 touches in a 42-28 loss to the Panthers. He should get a few more opportunities this weekend, as Ronald Jones (hamstring) is still unavailable and the Redskins may struggle to stay competitive while dealing with a slew of significant injuries. Of course, Barber hasn't done anything to inspire confidence.

Analysis: Barber first popped up on the Buccaneers' injury report in Week 8 with the injury, but he's proceeded to suit up in both of the team's last two contests. There doesn't seem to be any overwhelming concern about Barber's status for Sunday's game against the Redskins, so the Buccaneers may just be exercising caution in limiting his reps for the first two practices of the week. Tampa Bay probably has some added incentive to be careful with Barber with top backup Ronald Jones (hamstring) trending…read more

Still bothered by ankle
Barber (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barber played through the same injury in a 42-28 loss to Carolina on Sunday, taking 11 carries for 31 yards and catching two of three targets for nine yards. He'll have a better chance to take advantage of Ronald Jones' (hamstring) likely absence in Week 10, as the Buccaneers will draw a home matchup with the injury-riddled Redskins. Jones was a non-participant Wednesday and will most likely be ruled out for the weekend at the conclusion of the Bucs' final practice Friday.

Compiles 40 total yards in Week 9 loss
Barber rushed 11 times for 31 yards and brought in two of three targets for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 42-28 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: As has been the case in most games this season, the Bucs were forced to abandon the running game due to the fact they were facing a sizable deficit. That led to Barber's fifth game with under 40 rushing yards this season, as well as a decline of eight carries from his Week 8 total against the Bengals. Barber has naturally had a difficult time getting into any sort of rhythm with his inconsistent week-to-week usage, something he'll hope to work toward rectifying against the Redskins in Week 10.

Tying his season high with 19 carries, he churned out 85 yards and one touchdown.
