That's a really cool moment for Irving.
Irving only recently came back from injury for the Buccaneers, but he was a star last season and is expected to be a key part of what Tampa Bay is able to accomplish down the stretch.
His teammate, star linebacker Lavonte David, is the one who originally shared this video of Irving, too. It's gotta be special for Irving to have his teammates support him in this moment.
And on Sunday afternoon, they'll support one another on the gridiron as well, hoping for a big win on a milestone day in Irving's life.
