Optimism he will play
#Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski (ribs) is considered a game-time decision after missing about a month, and he’ll likely work out pre-game to be sure. One source described optimism about his playing status, which would be a big lift for TB against the #Saints. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: It sounds like Gronk is on the good side of Questionable but we’ll have to wait until pre-game warmups to know for sure. With Antonio Brown out, and Mike Evans battling Marshon Lattimore, Gronk could be heavily involved in the passing game in Week 8
