Buccaneers TEs Rob Gronkowski (ribs) and O.J. Howard (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.

Related Player: Cameron Brate

Fantasy Impact:

Tampa's top two tight ends sitting out is ominous, especially with the Bears coming to town and shutting down the position. Cameron Brate has been a zero when given a chance, so look elsewhere for a streaming TE.
