New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is listed as probable to face the Denver Broncos on Sunday. He is listed for his forearm, back and hamstring injuries by the team and was limited in practice all week. Simply put, he's playing.
Rob Gronkowski injury update: Tight end ready to go, fantasy owners
Rob Gronkowski is on the injury report again. We break down the fantasy implications.

The Patriots are going to list him as probable the rest of the way, and they've been doing so since he made his debut against the New York Jets earlier this season back on Oct. 20.
Gronk has scored in back-to-back weeks and averaged more than 100 yards in that span. He lost a few targets to running back Shane Vereen, but he will still be the go-to guy and get a ton of look in the red zone.
Fantasy impact: There should be a lot of points scored on Sunday. The Broncos are coming to town and lead the NFL in points per game. The Broncos — like most teams — really don’t have anyone that can cover the big tight end. Fantasy owners should put him in their lineup and have very high expectations. He’s the top tight end of the weekend.
