Bucky Irving is making Todd Bowles’ decision much harder each week. The rookie running back for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers isn’t the starter, but many people think he should be in the starting lineup, especially after his performance during the Buccaneers’ 30-7 win over the New York Giants on Sunday. Irving, the Buccaneers’ leading rusher, added to his case of being the named the starter following a career day against the Giants. Irving rushed for a career-high 87 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries while also catching six passes for 64 yards. Irving’s 151 yards from scrimmage were also a career-high. Irving provided the Buccaneers’ highlight of the game with a electrifying 56-yard run in the fourth quarter. The run was the longest of Irving’s brief career and the tied for the longest run of the season by a Tampa Bay running back. “I pretty much be seeing the whole field before I get the ball,” Irving told reporters after the game. “I just take a pre-snap (look) at what the defense is lined up in and then my instincts just kick in after that.” Irving leads the team in rushing with 579 yards and five touchdowns on 108 carries. He leads all rookies in rushing touchdowns and his 5.4 yards per carry ranks seventh in the NFL among qualified players. He also leads the team with four runs of at least 20 yards. He entered the league with a reputation of forcing missed tackles and he has forced 55 missed tackles, ranking seventh in the league. The conclusion among many Tampa Bay fans is Irving should be the starter, but Bowles has continued to start Rachaad White, with the reasoning that White is a better pass receiver and better in pass protection. However, Irving is continuing to improve as a receiver - he had a career-best 32-yard catch against the Giants - and his blocking in passing situations is also getting better. Irving now has more than 800 total yards from scrimmage and the all-around game has helped him attract attention for the Rookie of the Year award. Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels is presumed to be the frontrunner, but Denver quarterback Bo Nix is gaining ground. Irving probably won’t win the award, but he is making a strong case as the best rookie running back in the league.Rafael Perez: Americans really need to relax and stop taking national politics so seriously
Education Above All (EAA) Foundation, the OECD Network of Foundations Working for Development (netFWD), and Fundacao Getulio Vargas’ Division for the Development of Public Management and Educational Policies (FGV-DGPE) co-hosted a high-level event, 'Catalysing Change: Education’s Role in Building a Just and Sustainable Future,' during the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Rio de Janeiro. The event highlighted the essential role of education in addressing climate change and advancing equality, aligning with Brazil’s G20 Presidency theme, 'Building a Just World and a Sustainable Planet,' a statement said. The event brought together global leaders, educators, climate and health experts, and youth advocates to explore how education can drive resilience, equity, and sustainability across global agendas. The two-part event fostered meaningful dialogue and actionable insights on the transformative power of education. A high-level breakfast featured opening remarks from global leaders, emphasising the connection between education, climate, and health as foundational pillars for a resilient and equitable future. Following the opening, a round-table discussion focused on integrating education into climate and health policies to effectively address today’s most pressing challenges. During a technical session, panel discussions and workshops explored topics such as innovative financing for education, climate-resilient learning, the role of foundations in sustainable development, and youth-driven advocacy for systemic reform. They highlighted strategies to incorporate education into climate adaptation efforts and public health preparedness, reinforcing its central role in addressing global inequalities. Mohamed al-Kubaisi, acting CEO of Education Above All Foundation, said: “To achieve sustainable development goals and ensure equitable access to quality education, we must prioritise innovative financing solutions and collaborative approaches. EAA has provided educational opportunities to over 19mn out of schoolchildren and youth across 60 countries, leveraging nearly $3bn in co-funding through strategic partnerships. Closing the gap faced by over 260mn children and youth worldwide without access to education is critical for building a resilient, sustainable future.” Henrique Paim, director of the Public Management and Educational Policy Development Division at Fundacao Getulio Vargas, stated that education is a cornerstone in addressing persistent social, environmental, economic, cultural, and ethical challenges. To achieve this, he emphasised the need to develop and strengthen pedagogical practices that are forward-looking and adaptable to today’s rapidly evolving, innovation-driven landscape. Federico Bonaglia, deputy director of the OECD Development Centre, underscored the importance of addressing today’s global challenges and calls for a more inclusive multilateral system that amplifies voices from the Global South and inclusive partnerships that engage a diverse spectrum of actors, including philanthropy.
