Buccaneers' Antonio Brown (ankle) likely out through Week 14
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) is expected to miss at least the next two weeks, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN.
What It Means:
Brown hasn't played since Week 6 and the Buccaneers are likely going to prioritize his health for the postseason. Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, and Rob Gronkowski will continue soaking up the bulk of the Buccaneers' targets in the meantime. Tyler Johnson is Brown's primary replacement as Tampa Bay's third receiver.
The Falcons have the sixth-worst pass defense in numberFire's schedule-adjusted power rankings. Godwin and Evans are both averaging 6.3 targets per game over the last three weeks since the Buccaneers' bye.
