Gronkowski (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday’s practice.
As anticipated, Gronkowski was back at practice after he sat out Wednesday’s session due to the shoulder issue. Prior to that session, coach Bruce Arians characterized Gronkowski’s absence as a veteran’s day off, so the Buccaneers don’t seem to harbor any real concern about his status for Sunday’s game in Las Vegas. The Buccaneers will wait and see if Gronkowski is able to upgrade to full participation Friday before determining whether he’ll carry a designation into the weekend.
