Russell Gage Returns To Practice Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) returned to the practice field on Thursday after being listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. Gage has mostly dealt with a hamstring issue this year, so the ankle injury is a new one. However, the fact that he's back at practice is a good sign that the injury isn't too serious, but his availability for the Week 6 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers is still in question. The 26-year-old caught just two of six targets for 20 yards in last week's win over the Atlanta Falcons. If he plays and Julio Jones (knee) sits, Gage will be in play as a WR4/flex in deeper leagues as the No. 3 behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. He hasn't done much outside of a 12-catch, 87-yard, one-touchdown performance in Week 3 when Evans, Godwin and Jones were all out.
