Antonio Brown Misses Practice Thursday
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) went from being limited in practice on Wednesday to no practice at all on Thursday. Mid-week downgrades on the practice report are usually a bad sign, but the Buccaneers could be resting the 33-year-old after he returned from a long layoff last week to catch 10 passes on 15 targets for 101 yards in the easy win over the Carolina Panthers. Browns' Friday practice participation will give us a better idea on his status for Week 17 against the New York Jets. If he's active, though, even if Mike Evans (hamstring) returns, Brown will have WR1 upside in an excellent matchup with Chris Godwin (knee) done for the rest of the year.
