Per Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, TE Rob Gronkowski (ribs) was absent from Tampa’s Thursday practice.
Fantasy Impact: Gronkowski has missed back to back practices for the Bucs but the belief is that if he can get in at least one limited session by Friday that he should be good to go for Week 4. If available, Gronkowski figures to be a TE 1 as he and Tom Brady face the New England Patriots, a team they both know very well. For fantasy football purposes if Gronkowski is out, the Bucs will likely look to rely on a combination of O.J. Howard and Cameron Brate but neither will have the same upside as Gronkowski.
