Concern Surrounding Rob Gronkowski, Sony Michel
6 years agoThe New England Patriots will test tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) and rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) in pre-game workouts Sunday night, but there is concern about whether they will be able to play against the Packers, according to sources. Both players are listed as questionable on the injury report. Gronk missed Week 7 but returned on Monday night, although he looked hobbled and probably has been for most of the season, as he hasn't gone over 100 yards or scored since Week 1. Both he and Michel are shaping up to be very risky fantasy options this weekend with their game being Sunday night. Going in another direction might be your best move. Dwayne Allen would be the beneficiary at tight end if Gronk is inactive, but he's not a fantasy option. James White will be in play as an RB1 either way, while Cordarrelle Patterson and Kenjon Barner will mix in behind him if Michel misses another game.
