Rob Gronkowski (back, ankle) out for New England in Week 7

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski will not pay in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears.

What It Means:

Gronkowski didn't even make the trip to Chicago, leaving him with no chance of playing. The team expects him back for Week 8, so this missed game is hopefully a one-time thing.

Our models project Gronkowski for 49.84 catches, 587.15 yards, and 5.90 touchdowns going forward.
