The New England Patriots announced that tight end Rob Gronkowski is inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers after dealing with a back injury this week.
Gronkowski, 29, had been listed as questionable with added "concern" about whether he would play, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reported earlier in the day.
The oft-injured Pro Bowler already missed one game this season because of a back injury. His backup, Dwayne Allen, did not record a single reception in the win over the Chicago Bears.
From a fantasy perspective, there's little use in picking up Allen.
