3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (ribs) missed Wednesday's practice. Gronkowski has missed the last three games and hasn't practiced since sustaining multiple rib injuries. The Buccaneers had indicated that the star tight end was making progress, but until he upgrades his participation level at practice, he should still be considered a question mark to take the field Sunday against the Bears. Tampa Bay's tight end depth is suddenly thin, as OJ Howard (ankle) also popped up on the injury report. Cameron Brate could be in line for increased playing time if both Gronkowski and Howard miss Week 7.--Tim Capurso
