Russell Gage On Track For Week 1
2 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wideout Russell Gage (hamstring) recently confirmed that he's trending toward being available for the Buccaneers' Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. The 26-year-old has been battling a hamstring injury for several weeks but made his return to the practice field this past week. Gage is coming off of a solid year with the Falcons, where he caught 66 of his 94 targets for 770 yards and four touchdowns in 14 games (nine starts). The fifth-year receiver was recruited in the offseason by quarterback Tom Brady and was considered a strong breakout pick prior to the Buccaneers' acquisition of Julio Jones. Gage could still be a decent asset for fantasy, but his splash performances will be unpredictable due to the plethora of receiving weapons in this offense.
