What It Means:

Brate has turned in back-to-back limited sessions and appears to be trending toward playing on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. He missed the past two games with a neck injury and suffered a concussion prior to that, so the Buccaneers will likely err on the side of caution with Brate's return. Cade Otton has been filling in as the starting tight end.

Otton drew 5 targets each of the last two weeks while logging 81% and 91% offensive snap rates. The Rams are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to the tight end position this season.
