Rob Gronkowski Earns Questionable Tag, Nears Return
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) did not practice Saturday, but that was primarily an attempt to give the veteran additional rest before a potential return to action Monday. Head coach Bruce Arians sounded optimistic about Gronkowski's chances of suiting up for the first time since Week 8, although the offense has essentially been without his contributions since Week 3. When healthy, the four-time All-Pro is a surefire must-start season-long asset in any-sized format, as he has shown a propensity for hauling in red zone scores alongside quarterback Tom Brady. A return from Gronkowski would knock Cameron Brate and O.J. Howard out of most fantasy lineups, although there may be additional targets to go around Monday with Antonio Brown (ankle) sidelined. While Gronkowski is officially questionable, fantasy managers can operate as if he'll be on the field against New York.
