Russell Gage Misses Another Practice On Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (hamstring) missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Gage suffered a hamstring injury in Week 7 and sat out of last week's loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night. The 26-year-old is trending towards missing his second straight game, so fantasy managers should be looking elsewhere for a flex option in deeper leagues. Julio Jones (knee) was back at practice on Thursday, so he should operate as the No. 3 wideout behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin if he's cleared to play Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Gage has just 29 receptions for 231 yards and one touchdown in seven games in his first season with the Bucs. He should probably be on the waiver wire in 12-team leagues.
