One catch in return
Gage brought in his only target for 11 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-16 win over the Saints on Monday night.
Analysis: Making his first appearance since Week 7, Gage unsurprisingly filled a low-volume role as the No. 4 receiver. He had recorded multiple receptions in each of his first seven games of the campaign prior to being sidelined, but with Julio Jones now healthy and slotting into the No. 3 role, Gage's already modest value is capped unless injuries again strike Tampa Bay's WR depth chart.

Back in action Monday
Gage (hamstring) is active for Monday's game against the Saints, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage put himself in a position for his first game action since Week 7 by logging a full practice Saturday, but the Buccaneers' receiving corps is as healthy as it's been all season, meaning his snap count may be capped working behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones. More than likely, Gage will be vying with Scotty Miller for reps in multi-WR sets.

Trending in positive direction
Gage (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Saints, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gage was limited in practice both Thursday and Friday, but the veteran receiver was upgraded to a full participant in the final practice of the week, which should be a good sign for fantasy managers. The 26-year-old has not played since Week 7 due to a hamstring injury, and he had just one game with more than two receptions in the four weeks prior to suffering the aforementioned injury.

Another limited practice
Gage (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Friday.
Analysis: Gage has now practiced on back-to-back days after not doing so at all since Week 7. He's close to a return, but it might not happen for Monday's game against the Saints, especially given that the Bucs don't need him as much with Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones all healthy at the moment.

Begins week as limited participant
Gage (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Gage's limited session marks his first recorded practice activity since Week 7. Considering that he's missed each of the Buccaneers' last four games over a stretch of five weeks, Gage may need to upgrade to full participation in practices Friday or Saturday to have a good chance at playing Monday against the Saints. Even if Gage is active for that contest, he'll likely find himself as the fourth man on the depth chart at receiver, as all of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Julio Jones are currently…read more

Sidelined for Week 12
Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Gage (hamstring) won't play Sunday in Cleveland, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Even with the benefit of a Week 11 bye, Gage didn't demonstrate enough progress in his recovery from a hamstring injury during practices Wednesday through Friday for the Buccaneers to feel comfortable with him suiting up this weekend. With Gage set to miss a fourth straight game, Godwin should operate as the Buccaneers' primary slot man, while Julio Jones will get more opportunities to work out on the perimeter opposite Mike Evans.

Doesn't practice Thursday
Gage (hamstring) was listed as a DNP on Thursday's practice report.
Analysis: Gage has yet to log anything but a DNP on Buccaneers injury reports since hurting his hamstring back in Week 7. However, he was seen working with the training staff on the side during the portion of Thursday's session open to the media, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Another absence may be in the offing for Gage on Sunday in Cleveland, which may be confirmed as early as Friday. While he's sidelined, Tampa Bay will continue to rely on Mike Evans and Chris Godwin as its top wide…read more

Not practicing Wednesday
Gage (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gage reportedly practiced Monday in an unofficial session coming out of the Buccaneers Week 11 bye, but he'll now be listed as a non-participant on the team's first official injury report of Week 12. He hasn't played since injuring his hamstring Week 7, allowing Julio Jones and Scotty Miller to step into larger roles behind the lead wideout duo of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

Practicing Monday
Gage (hamstring) is participating in Monday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gage is back at practice for the first time since injuring his hamstring in Week 7, so it appears that he benefited from Tampa Bay's bye week. If he is able to ramp up his activity without any setbacks, he could return to action Sunday versus Cleveland.

Not traveling to Germany
Gage (hamstring) won't travel to Germany for Sunday's game against the Seahawks in Munich, effectively ruling him out for Week 10 action, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: This comes as no surprise after Gage failed to practice in any capacity Wednesday and Thursday. He'll miss his third game as a result of a hamstring injury, but the Buccaneers' Week 11 bye could position him to return to action Week 12 at Cleveland if he makes enough headway in his recovery. With Gage unavailable this weekend, Mike Evans (ribs/ankle), Chris Godwin and Julio Jones (rest/knee) will be Tampa Bay's primary wide receivers. Meanwhile, Scotty Miller is the best bet to earn any…read more

Another DNP on Thursday
Gage (hamstring) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: With no noticeable on-field work since suffering a hamstring injury Week 7 at Carolina, Gage seems to be trending toward a third consecutive absence Sunday versus the Seahawks in Munich. Friday's practice report may confirm as much, and if he indeed sits out this weekend, Scotty Miller, Breshad Perriman and Jaelon Darden will be the Buccaneers' depth receivers behind the top three of Mike Evans (ribs/ankle), Chris Godwin and Julio Jones (rest/knee).

No practice Wednesday
Gage (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Gage has yet to take part in a practice since hurting his hamstring Week 7 in Carolina, missing the last two games as a result. Without some on-field activity Thursday or Friday, he's likely on pace to miss a third consecutive contest Sunday versus the Seahawks in Munich. The Buccaneers may rule out Gage before they embark on the trans-Atlantic flight in the coming days.

Won't play this week
Gage (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With Gage missing a second straight game, the Bucs again figure to go with Mike Evans (ankle), Chris Godwin and Julio Jones as their top three wide receivers. They also have Scotty Miller, Breshad Perriman and Jaelon Darden as depth options, which could come in handy if Evans has a setback with his ankle or Jones' PCL injury flares up.

Still no activity at practice
Gage (hamstring) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Gage remains sidelined due to the hamstring issue that he suffered Week 7 in Carolina and appears to be trending toward a second straight absence Sunday against the Rams. If such an outcome is confirmed on the release of Friday's injury report, the Buccaneers likely will roll with their top three wide receivers Mike Evans (ankle) -- who was limited Wednesday and Thursday -- Chris Godwin and Julio Jones (knee) in Week 9

No practice Wednesday
Gage (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Since injuring his hamstring Week 7 at Carolina, Gage hasn't stepped foot on the practice field. He'll have two more opportunities this week to do so, but if he's unable to get any work in Thursday and/or Friday, he'll be in danger of missing a second game in a row Sunday against the Rams. Julio Jones (knee) also sat out Wednesday's session, while Mike Evans (ankle) was a limited participant.

Out versus Ravens
Head coach Todd Bowles said that Gage (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage won't be available Week 8 after injuring his hamstring in last Sunday's loss to the Panthers, while Julio Jones (knee) is expected to be a game-time decision. The wideout has drawn at least four targets in six straight games, and he will work to get healthy in time to face the Rams in Week 9.

Not practicing yet
Gage (hamstring) didn't take part in Tuesday's walkthrough, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage has yet to step on the field since injuring his hamstring this past Sunday at Carolina, and he has little time left to do so ahead of Thursday's contest against the Ravens. Fellow wide receivers Mike Evans (ankle) and Julio Jones (knee) followed DNPs on Monday with limited showings Tuesday, so they may have better chances to join Chris Godwin as active in Week 8. Gage's listing on Wednesday's practice report could clear up his status.

Doesn't practice Monday
Gage (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant in Monday's walkthrough, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gage exited Sunday's loss at Carolina with a hamstring issue and was slated to undergo an MRI on Monday, per Jenna Laine of ESPN.com. While the results of the examination are unknown, Gage went down as a DNP along with Mike Evans (ankle) and Julio Jones (knee) on the first injury report of Week 8 prep. With a short week ahead of Thursday's game versus the Ravens, Gage's status should be monitored to get a sense of his upcoming availability (or lack thereof).

Set for MRI on hamstring
Gage (hamstring) will have an MRI to determine the severity of his injury Monday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gage was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Panthers in the fourth quarter, so his status will need to be monitored ahead of Thursday's contest against the Ravens. It's possible that the fifth-year wideout aggravated the hamstring injury that hampered him during the first four weeks of the season. Coach Todd Bowles said Monday's he's currently uncertain about Gage's status for Week 8, per Greg Auman of The Athletic, but the receiver's MRI results should provide more information.

Departs Sunday's game
Gage picked up a hamstring injury during Sunday's contest at Carolina, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Before exiting in the fourth quarter, Gage reeled in four of his five targets for 39 yards. He tended to a hamstring injury for the first four weeks of the campaign, so the fifth-year wide receiver may have aggravated the issue.

Pair of grabs in loss
Gage brought in two of four targets for 20 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.
Analysis: Gage once again spent plenty of time on the field -- he logged 53 snaps overall -- yet had little to show for it. The veteran now has three straight two-catch efforts, and he's eclipsed 28 receiving yards all of one time in the first six games, despite the prolonged absence of Julio Jones (knee). Gage's fantasy value remains muted heading into a Week 7 divisional matchup on the road against the Panthers.

Fine for Sunday
Gage (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Gage was listed with a hamstring injury for the first five weeks of the season and now is bothered by his ankle, though not enough to keep him off the field. He even managed a full practice Friday, suggesting he'll be fine for his usual role alongside Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Meanwhile, Julio Jones (knee) is listed as doubtful and isn't expected to play.

Limited in return to practice
Gage (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Gage was bothered by a hamstring injury all season before he made an appearance on the Bucs' injury report last Saturday due to a back issue. He was able to play Week 5 against the Falcons en route to a typical 73-percent snap share and two catches (on six targets) for 20 yards. Now, Gage is tending to an ankle issue, but he at least was able to mix into drills Thursday, which he didn't do Wednesday. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not Gage heads into the weekend with a…read more

Dealing with ankle issue
Gage didn't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury.
Analysis: As of the final injury report of Week 5 last Friday, Gage had been bothered only by a hamstring issue this season. However, the Buccaneers added him to the report Saturday due to a back concern before he suited up this past Sunday against the Falcons. Gage logged a typical 73 percent of the offensive snaps but managed to haul in just two of six targets for 20 yards. His health has now been compromised by a new issue this week, and as a result, Gage's status should be monitored to get a sense of…read more

Limited production versus old squad
Gage (back) secured two of six targets for 20 yards and recorded a two-point conversion reception in the Buccaneers' 21-15 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran played through an injury designation yet again, although this time it was a back issue that cropped up Saturday. Gage played a clear complementary role behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and even rookie tight end Cade Otton, the latter of whom finished with a career-best 6-43-0 line on seven targets. Gage appears destined for modest production in a decidedly short-area role under any circumstance, as he's yet to top 87 yards (and that was on 12 catches) in any game and has been held…read more

Playing Sunday, per usual
Gage (back) is listed as active Sunday against the Falcons, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage has played through a lingering hamstring issue all season, but a back concern was the reason the Buccaneers added him to the injury report Saturday, leaving his status in question for Week 5. He'll nonetheless be available to the offense Sunday, and he'll join Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in a receiving corps that'll be without Julio Jones (knee) for the third time on the campaign. Through four contests, Gage has averaged 5.3 catches for 38 yards per game while scoring one touchdown.

Should be available Sunday
Gage (back), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Buccaneers are hopeful about both Gage and Julio Jones (knee) suiting up Sunday. With Mike Evans and Chris Godwin both back atop the depth chart, though, the team could afford an absence from Gage if he needs a week off to recover. Gage has surpassed 30 receiving yards in just one of four appearances on the season.

Back on injury report
Gage (back) was added to the injury report Saturday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: This is less than ideal news for Gage considering the slot receiver didn't have an injury designation following Friday's practice after weeks of dealing with a balky hamstring injury. The Buccaneers have gotten healthier at wide receiver over recent weeks with Chris Godwin officially back and Julio Jones (knee) trending in the right direction, so a precautionary absence for Gage wouldn't be overly surprising. Expect more news to emerge before the team's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Cleared to face Falcons
Gage (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gage and Chris Godwin (knee) have been removed from the injury report, while Julio Jones (knee) is listed as questionable for a fourth straight week. Gage mostly worked on the perimeter in a Week 4 loss to Kansas City while Godwin dominated slot snaps, but it was more mixed back in Week 1 the last time both were healthy. If the Falcons use A.J. Terrell to shadow Mike Evans, that would leave Casey Hayward on whichever of Godwin/Gage gets the perimeter snaps, while the slot receiver could be…read more

Mike Evans is atop Tampa Bay's receiving corps, but all of Gage, Chris Godwin (knee), Julio Jones (knee) and Breshad Perriman (knee/hamstring) have had a cap on their reps this week.

Analysis: A hamstring issue has followed Gage throughout the season, but he's been the one constant in the Buccaneers' receiving corps, playing between 42 and 81 percent of the offensive snaps weekly, depending on who was available for game day. Overall, he's averaging 7.2 yards per catch and 6.1 yards per target on his 25 targets through four games.

Limited to two grabs in loss
Gage brought in two of four targets for 24 yards during the Buccaneers' 41-31 loss to the Saints on Sunday night.
Analysis: With Chris Godwin and Julio Jones available to start the game after overcoming their questionable designations, Gage saw exponentially less volume than in Week 4, despite the fact Jones was ultimately limited to just 18 snaps. Gage logged 41 in his own right, but he still generated his lowest reception and yardage totals since Week 1 against the Cowboys. With Jones' health once again in question due to his knee issues, Gage could be in line for a return to a larger role against his old Falcons…read more

Active in Week 4
Gage (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Gage has dealt with a hamstring issue all season, but he's still suited up for all three games, culminating in a 12-87-1 line on 13 targets last Sunday against the Packers. He's unlikely to see such volume this weekend with Mike Evans back from his one-game suspension and Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) also available. That said, Gage still is in line for modest usage, with room to expand if any of the aforementioned trio again head to the sideline.

Expected to face Kansas City
Gage (hamstring) is expected to play Sunday night against Kansas City, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.
Analysis: The same applies to fellow wide receivers Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee), though the trio's status will still be worth verifying ahead of Sunday's 8:20 ET kickoff. Meanwhile, Mike Evans is set to return from his Week 3 suspension, which likely sets the stage for Gage, if active, to see less volume than he did last weekend (13 targets) against the Packers when Godwin, Jones and Evans were all unavailable.

Analysis: It's the fourth straight week he's been listed as questionable with the same hamstring injury, and he's yet to miss a game. Gage even put together a big stat line last week, with 12 catches for 87 yards and a touchdown in a 14-12 loss to the Packers. He's unlikely to see that many looks Week 4 with Mike Evans back from suspension, but there's a shot Gage works as the No. 2 receiver with both Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) categorized as game-time decisions.

Analysis: Both Gage and Julio Jones (knee) had a cap on their reps in the second session of Week 4 prep, while Chris Godwin (hamstring) was given a veteran rest day Thursday, and Breshad Perriman (knee/hamstring) has yet to practice this week.

Sets career high
Gage caught 12 of 13 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown but lost a fumble in Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Gage led the Buccaneers in all major receiving categories, taking advantage of Mike Evans (suspension), Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) all being sidelined. His one-yard touchdown with 14 seconds left put Tampa Bay on the brink of overtime, yet Gage hurt the team's momentum with a fumble earlier in the game.

Analysis: Gage was able to play through his hamstring issues for a second straight week to open the season, finishing with a team-high number of catches in a game in which the Buccaneers were down both Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee), and during which Mike Evans was ejected early in the fourth quarter. Gage has been even more of a short-area target over his first two games in Tampa Bay than he was in Atlanta, and he may have an uphill battle to rack up yardage against a tough Packers…read more

Suiting up Week 2
Gage (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game in New Orleans.
Analysis: Gage missed the Buccaneers' first practice of the week Wednesday and was limited Thursday and Friday, but the hamstring issue evidently isn't severe enough to keep him out for Week 2. With Chris Godwin's own hamstring injury set to keep him on the sideline this weekend, Gage projects to serve as the primary replacement in the slot. Meanwhile, Julio Jones (knee) is also inactive and Mike Evans (calf) is suiting up but is likely to draw coverage from the Saints' top corner, Marshon Lattimore, so…read more

Expected to face Saints
Gage (hamstring) remans listed as questionable but is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Saints, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Gage is expected to play Week 2, and the Buccaneers are reportedly optimistic about Mike Evans (calf) being available as well, while Julio Jones (knee) is considered a game-time decision. Meanwhile, Chris Godwin (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's contest. Depending on how things pan out, Gage could have to step up into a key role for Tom Brady versus the Saints.

Listed as questionable
Gage (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gage played through the same injury last week but didn't have much impact, seeing two targets on a 42 percent snap share. There's an opportunity ahead with Chris Godwin (hamstring) ruled out for at least one game, but it isn't clear if Gage's own problematic hamstring will cooperate and allow him to take on a full workload. The Bucs also list Mike Evans (calf) and Julio Jones (knee) as questionable this week, creating a lot of uncertainty heading into the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.

Logs limited practice Thursday
Gage (hamstring) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Gage was among three Bucs wideouts to sit out Wednesday -- also, Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Julio Jones (knee) -- but he was the only one to return to the field one day later. Meanwhile, Mike Evans also didn't practice Thursday after kicking off Week 2 prep with a capped session, and Breshad Perriman remained limited. Overall, that accounts for the team's top five options at the position, so Gage's ability to practice puts him in a better light than Evans, Godwin and Jones. In the end,…read more

Doesn't practice
Gage missed Wednesday's practice with a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Gage, Julio Jones (knee) and Chris Godwin (hamstring) all missed practice, with Godwin all but certain to miss time after exiting the Week 1 win over the Cowboys early. Gage saw only two targets despite Godwin's early exit, perhaps still hampered by the hamstring injury that limited him for much of the summer and now has him absent from Wednesday's practice. Tampa Bay's injury reports will merit close watching throughout the rest of the week.

Modestly involved in Week 1 win
Gage brought in both targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 19-3 win over the Cowboys on Sunday night.
Analysis: Gage's team debut was a quiet one overall, but of overriding importance was the fact the veteran made it through the game without setbacks after having missed multiple weeks with a hamstring issue. Gage should enjoy an expanded role as the season unfolds and he gets acclimated to working with Tom Brady, and he could see a boost in workload as early as next Sunday's Week 2 divisional clash against the Saints if Chris Godwin isn't able to play due to the hamstring injury that forced his early…read more

Analysis: Gage missed the entire preseason schedule due to a hamstring injury sustained during a joint practice with the Dolphins on Aug. 10. While he put together back-to-back weeks with on-field work, he was limited in all three practices during preparation for the season opener. With his status now clear, he'll operate alongside Mike Evans, the returning Chris Godwin (knee) and Julio Jones.

On track to play
Gage (hamstring) is "likely to play" in Sunday's game at Dallas despite being listed as questionable, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.
Analysis: Gage was limited in practice Wednesday through Friday, but he's been participating in some capacity since the end of August or early September after injuring his hamstring Aug. 10 during a scrimmage. Chris Godwin (knee) also is listed as questionable for Sunday night, while Mike Evans and Julio Jones are good to go. Gage may enjoy catching passes from QB Tom Brady, but it's possible the former Falcon slips to fourth on the depth chart if all four are ever healthy at the same time.

Gage (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Dallas, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Chris Godwin (knee) also is listed as questionable, and while he managed full practices Wednesday and Friday, it's hard to know if he'll play less than nine months after suffering an ACL tear.

Gage was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Analysis: Head coach Todd Bowles was optimistic last week when discussing Gage's availability for the season opener against Dallas on Sunday. A limited practice suggests the wideout isn't quite back to full strength, but he'll still have some time to get there before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.

Trending up for Week 1
Gage (leg) was able to return to practice this past week, leaving him on track to be available for the Week 1 matchup against the Cowboys, the team's official site reports. "He's getting better and better every day," head coach Todd Bowles said. "We expect him to be on track to play and trending in the right direction."
Analysis: The offseason acquisition has been sidelined for multiple weeks, but he appears to finally be past his physical issues. Gage reported feeling very good following Thursday's practice, and if he's available Week 1 as increasingly expected, it would help alleviate the potential absence of Chris Godwin (knee) in that contest.

Quarterback Tom Brady (personal) plans to remain away from the Buccaneers until after the team's Aug. 20 preseason matchup against the Titans, and wide receivers Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ACL) are also dealing with injuries, so Tampa Bay's offensive personnel will be relatively limited at practice.

Gage has flashed in multiple ways, including making impressive catches on crossing patterns, near the sideline and in the end zone.

Analysis: Gage is coming off back-to-back productive seasons in Atlanta in which he totaled at least 66 catches and 770 yards and exactly four touchdowns per year. He'll kick off the upcoming campaign as the No. 2 wide receiver in Tampa Bay behind Mike Evans due to Chris Godwin's ongoing recovery from a Week 15 ACL tear. Considering Godwin may not be healthy for a good portion of the season, Gage should be on the receiving end of numerous passes per game from Tom Brady.

Gage secured four of six targets for 64 yards in the Falcons' 29-21 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Gage's receiving yardage total paced the Falcons on the afternoon and served as his fourth straight useful fantasy performance. The veteran's numbers were nowhere near as spectacular as his Week 13 output of 11 receptions for 130 yards, but he's now logged at least six targets in four straight contests and at least 62 receiving yards in three consecutive.

Gage brought in 11 of 12 targets for 130 yards in the Falcons' 30-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: The veteran lit up his old team repeatedly throughout the afternoon, leading to career-best reception and receiving yardage totals. Gage has been productive in multiple games this season, but he's also had a trio of catch-less efforts that help render him one of the more unpredictable wideouts around the league. Nevertheless, Gage now has posted at least five grabs in three consecutive contests, giving him plenty of momentum ahead of a Week 14 visit to the Panthers for an NFC South clash.

If Calvin Ridley (personal) remains on the reserve/non-football injury list, Gage will continue to work as the Falcons' de facto No. 1 wide receiver in Week 13 against the Buccaneers.

Analysis: Gage led the Falcons in receptions, receiving yards and targets, although considering the team netted all of 125 passing yards, those numbers didn't add up to much from a fantasy perspective. The veteran possession receiver was at least able to bounce back from his second catchless effort over the previous three games in Week 10, sending him into a favorable Week 12 road matchup against the Jaguars a week from Sunday with some momentum.

While he tied Tajae Sharpe with 36 offensive snaps in Week 8 -- most among wideouts -- Gage was held without a target.

Analysis: Gage was unable to practice Wednesday and Thursday due to the ankle injury, and it appears he's headed for another absence Friday. The 25-year-old's availability for Sunday's matchup with the Giants remains a significant question mark.

DNP on Thursday
Gage (ankle) was held out of practice Thursday, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage has yet to take the practice field this week as he tends to an ankle injury stemming from Week 2. Friday's session and subsequent injury report from the team will be telling for the fourth-year wide receiver's availability for Sunday road game against the Giants. If Gage is sidelined or limited this weekend, Olamide Zaccheaus, Tajae Sharpe and Christian Blake are on hand to fill in next to Calvin Ridley.

Misses another practice
Gage (ankle) wasn't spotted at Thursday's practice and is set to go down as a non-participant on the Falcons' official report, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Gage's ankle injury also kept him from practicing Wednesday, so he'll likely need to get on the field in some capacity Friday to avoid being ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants. If Gage ends up sitting out the Week 3 matchup, Tajae Sharpe could be the next man up to step in as Atlanta's top option out of the slot.

No practice reps Wednesday
Gage (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Head coach Arthur Smith told Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com earlier Wednesday that Gage will be quite limited this week due to the ankle injury he suffered Week 2 in Tampa Bay, but "there's always a chance" the wide receiver demonstrates enough progress to play Sunday against the Giants in New York. Meanwhile, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network termed Gage week-to-week due to the injury, with Friday appearing to be the day that he'll test out his ankle. If Gage requires an absence Week 3, he'll cede…read more

Dealing with ankle issue
Head coach Arthur Smith noted Wednesday that Gage (ankle) would be very limited at practice this week, Matt Urben of the USA Today reports.
Analysis: At this stage, Gage looks iffy for Sunday's game against the Giants. If Gage ends up sitting out this weekend, more snaps and targets would be available for Olamide Zaccheaus, Christian Blake and Tajae Sharpe.

Just 28 yards in Week 2
Gage caught five of seven targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 48-25 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Gage was in and out of the game due to an ankle injury, and the injury may have played a role in his inability to create separation downfield; his longest gain went for just eight yards. Atlanta's new No. 2 wide receiver following the offseason departure of Julio Jones has struggled to take advantage of his prominent role thus far, as quarterback Matt Ryan has spread the ball out to tight ends and running backs behind top wideout Calvin Ridley. Gage will look to put his slow start behind him on…read more

Picks up ankle injury
Gage suffered an ankle injury during the second quarter of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Prior to his exit, Gage had hauled in both of his targets for 10 yards. The receptions marked his first two of the campaign, after he was unable to haul in either of his two targets Week 1 against the Eagles. As long as Gage is sidelined, Olamide Zaccheaus, Tajae Sharpe and Christian Blake will be the candidates for reps at wide receiver behind clear No. 1 WR Calvin Ridley.

Goose egg in Week 1
Gage failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 32-6 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Gage was far from the only Falcons player who struggled in the opener, as Atlanta failed to get into the end zone offensively and gave up at least a touchdown in every quarter to boot. On the bright side, Gage clearly is locked in as the team's No. 2 receiver. He played 49 of 72 offensive snaps, trailing only Calvin Ridley (61) while no other wide receiver played more than 19. Gage, along with the rest of the Falcons, will look to pick things up in Tampa Bay in Week 2.

Sits out Saturday against Dolphins
Gage did not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Dolphins, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: The Falcons sat a number of players from their wide receiver corps, including Calvin Ridley. After the departure of Julio Jones, Gage figures to serve as the team's second receiver. Gage produced 72 receptions for 786 yards and four touchdowns in 2020 and could see more volume in 2021. However, he's not much of a downfield threat, as he averaged only 7.2 yards per target.

Set for starting role
Gage will likely find himself in a key role in the passing game in 2021 following the departure of Julio Jones, Scott Blair of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage broke out for a career-best 72 catches for 786 yards and four touchdowns on 109 targets in 2020, all career-best outputs through three seasons. He could have a chance to surpass those outputs as a full-time starter this season alongside Calvin Ridley, although the addition of Kyle Pitts figures to draw some targets away from the wide receiver position.

Lights up Bucs in finale
Gage corralled nine of his 11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Calvin Ridley outpaced Gage by one in the targets department, but the former LSU Tiger prevailed over his Crimson Tide teammate in establishing team-highs in both catches and receiving yards. Gage proved himself to be a productive option with Julio Jones (hamstring) unavailable for the final quarter of the regular season, totaling 23 catches for 264 yards and two receiving TDs while adding a 39-yard passing score to Ridley during a Week 14 loss to the Chargers.

Analysis: He equaled Hayden Hurst for second in targets behind Calvin Ridley's team high of nine, but Gage was held under 50 receiving yards for the first time over his past four outings. The 24-year-old had established himself as a high-floor fantasy option of late with four or more catches in four straight games, adding two receiving scores and a 39-yard passing touchdown between Weeks 13 and 15.

Notches TD in big first-half effort
Gage caught five of 10 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Gage delivered an impactful opening drive, pulling in a 27-yard catch on a deep post before notching his fourth score of the season by virtue of a five-yard catch the very next play. The third-year wideout now finds himself in the midst of a three-game scoring streak after throwing a 39-yard TD to Calvin Ridley during last Sunday's loss to the Chargers.

Gage secured five of seven targets for 82 yards, adding a 39-yard touchdown pass during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Gage logged four-plus receptions and 50 or more receiving yards for a second consecutive game, but his long TD pass to Calvin Ridley was undoubtedly a crucial addition to his output. Gadget-play TDs such as these may come few and far between for Gage, but regardless of the route taken, the 24-year-old delivered for those who relied on him in fantasy playoff matchups.

Secures team's lone receiving TD
Gage hauled in four of eight targets for 51 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 21-16 loss to New Orleans.
Analysis: Julio Jones' return to the lineup from a hamstring injury did not deplete Gage's role, as the third-year man logged more targets, receptions and receiving yards than he did Week 12 against the Raiders while Jones was inactive. Gage also secured his first receiving TD since Week 2, bringing an end to the 24-year-old's nine-game scoring drought. With eight-plus targets in two of his past three outings, he remains the third WR option for the Falcons heading into a Week 14 matchup at the Chargers.

The third-year wideout from LSU finished tied for third on the team in targets behind Calvin Ridley (nine) and Hayden Hurst (eight), but he was held under 35 receiving yards for the third time in his past four outings.

Gage caught seven of a team-high 12 targets for 58 receiving yards during Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: With Julio Jones beleaguered by a hamstring issue from the second quarter on, missing a chunk of second-half action in the process, Gage reached the double-digit threshold in targets for the first time since Week 1. The LSU product started the season promisingly by recording 15 receptions for 160 yards and a touchdown Weeks 1 and 2, but entering Sunday he had averaged just 31.3 receiving yards per game with zero scores in seven appearances since.

Atlanta boasts the third-most prolific passing offense in the NFL thus far in 2020, but Gage possesses just two outings of more than 26 receiving yards since Week 2.

Gage (shoulder/knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gage closed out the week with a full practice, following limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday.

Gage (shoulder/knee) was limited at Thursday's practice, Tori McElhaney of The Athletic reports
Analysis: Gage has contended with a number of injuries this season, including a concussion and the aforementioned shoulder and knee issues. He's still managed to play at least 50 percent of the snaps on offense in six of eight games, and he may be called upon for more this Sunday against the Broncos with Calvin Ridley unable to practice due to a mid-foot sprain. Having said that, Gage will need to get past his own injury first in order to do so.

Puts in limited practice
Gage was limited in practice Wednesday due to shoulder and knee injuries, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Meanwhile, Calvin Ridley was unable to practice due to a mid-foot sprain suffered last Thursday at Carolina, a development that may open up some reps for Gage if the former is forced to miss some time. Since opening the season with 15 catches (on 21 targets) for 160 yards a touchdown between the first two games, Gage has only surpassed 50 receiving yards in four of the last six contests. Assuming he can get past his own health concerns, he'll look to get back on track Sunday against the Broncos.

Still, he made an impression in the box score, with six receptions (on seven targets) for 54 yards.

Analysis: Gage's knee issue resulted in his activity being restricted for the second straight day, but the Falcons thus far haven't suggested that his availability for Thursday's game against the Panthers is in any peril. Though the injury played a part in Gage playing only 32 percent of the offensive snaps in the Falcons' Week 7 loss to the Lions, the slot specialist still managed six receptions for 54 yards on seven targets.

That may explain the fact that Olamide Zaccheaus, who is typically No. 4 on the WR depth chart, tripled Gage in targets Week 4.

Gage caught six of his nine targets for 46 receiving yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 40-39 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: If Gage's involvement over the latter stages of 2019 wasn't convincing enough to consider him a legitimate fantasy pickup in drafts, Weeks 1 and 2 have gone a long way toward changing that stance. Gage attracted eight targets per game Weeks 12 through 17 last year, though part of that can be explained away by the fact that Calvin Ridley missed three games during that span with an abdominal injury.

Gage is the favorite to serve as Atlanta's No. 3 option at wide receiver during 2020, Matthew Tabeek of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: The offseason arrival of 2016 first-round draft choice Laquon Treadwell provides some competition to Gage, but the 24-year-old seems to be coming into his own, and he will be difficult for the newcomer Treadwell to supplant. Gage recorded five or more receptions over five of his final six outings to wrap up 2019, proving himself capable of replacing Mohamed Sanu, who'd been traded to the Patriots. If able to fend off Treadwell for the job during training camp, Gage will have an opportunity to…read more

Beneficiary of draft weekend
Gage remains well-positioned to serve as the Falcons' slot receiver after Atlanta went without drafting a single wideout during the 2020 NFL Draft, Mike Clay of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: As Clay noted, during weeks in which both Calvin Ridley and Julio Jones were active last season, Gage saw his target share vault to 16 percent after Mohamed Sanu's Oct. 22 trade to New England. As the No. 4 option at receiver Weeks 1 through 7, Gage accounted for just four combined catches and 44 yards, but from Week 8 to the end of the regular season, he averaged a respectable five catches and 44.7 yards per game. His involvement transferred from obsolete to significant as a result of Sanu's…read more

Ties Jones for team high in targets
Gage caught seven of 13 targets for 68 yards during Sunday's 28-22 overtime win against Tampa Bay.
Analysis: The second-year wideout from LSU turned it on over the late stages of 2019, racking up five-plus receptions in five of his final six outings to close out the year. Gage's role within Atlanta's offense increased substantially with the trade of Mohamed Sanu to New England on Oct. 22, as Gage averaged 7.3 targets per game between Weeks 8 and 17 after garnering just eight total targets across his first six appearances. With Calvin Ridley (abdomen) expected to be recovered well in time for OTAs,…read more

Solid Week 16 showing against Jags
Gage hauled in five of six targets for 49 yards and ran for seven yards on two carries during Sunday's 24-12 win against Jacksonville.
Analysis: The second-year man out of LSU has been a steady contributor in Atlanta's passing game over the past month, as he has amassed at least five receptions in four of five appearances since Week 12. Gage has been efficient with opportunities granted during that span, establishing an impressive 71.4 percent catch rate with 46.8 scrimmage yards per game. He'll continue to be a secondary option for Matt Ryan when the Falcons take on a Buccaneers defense Week 17 that ranks 32nd in the NFL in both…read more

Tied for second in targets Week 15
Gage caught five of six targets for 27 receiving yards and ran for six yards on his lone rush attempt during Sunday's 29-22 win against the 49ers.
Analysis: The LSU product has now been held to 50 combined scrimmage yards over the past two weeks, but it's encouraging that he's been a highly-involved contributor amidst the depleted Falcons' receiving corps. Gage has garnered six-plus targets over three of his past four appearances heading into a Week 16 matchup against a Jacksonville defense that Sunday allowed just one opposing player -- Oakland's Darren Waller -- to exceed 45 receiving yards.

More work on tap
Gage is in line for increased usage with Calvin Ridley (abdomen) expected to miss the rest of the season, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Since Mohamed Sanu was dealt to the Patriots in late October, Gage has manned the slot for the Falcons, racking up 41 targets over the last six games. Gage's peripheral numbers (9.2 YPC and 6.3 YPT) are appropriate for a receiver that doesn't make an impact outside of short- and medium-range throws from Matt Ryan. Having said that, Gage is set to be an even bigger part of Atlanta's passing attack over the final three games of the campaign.

No designation for Sunday
Gage (ribs) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Panthers, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Gage has been a regular in the Falcons offense since Mohamed Sanu was dealt to the Patriots after Week 7. In five subsequent outings, Gage has earned between 48 and 74 percent of the snaps on offense in a given week, compiling 26 catches (on 37 targets) for 241 yards and one touchdown. His practice reps were capped this week by a rib injury, but fellow wideouts Julio Jones (shoulder) and Calvin Ridley (toe) had the same limitations. The trio will aim to take advantage of a Carolina defense that…read more

Reps capped Thursday
Gage (ribs) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Even with a lengthier turnaround for Sunday's game against the Panthers after the Falcons last played Thanksgiving Day, Gage is evidently still hurting to some degree. Now listed as a limited participant in back-to-back practices, Gage will likely need to graduate to full participation in Friday's session to avoid carrying a designation into the matchup with Carolina. Since taking over for the departed Mohamed Sanu as Atlanta's primary slot man in Week 8, Gage has averaged 7.4 targets per game.

Battling rib injury
Gage was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a rib injury, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gage is seemingly nicked up coming out of the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Saints, during which he tallied five catches for 52 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. With Julio Jones (shoulder), Calvin Ridley (toe), Austin Hooper (knee), Luke Stocker (back) and Jaeden Graham (thigh) all limited as well to begin the week, Gage could once again be facing a notable opportunity for targets if he's able to get fully healthy in time for Sunday's tilt with Carolina.

Tallies first career receiving TD
Gage caught five of nine targets for 52 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's 26-18 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: The second-year receiver has become a staple in Atlanta's passing game over the past month, garnering 7.4 targets per game since Week 8, after commanding just eight total targets Weeks 1 through 7. The jettisoning of Mohamed Sanu to New England provided an opportunity for the LSU product to step up, and he's so far established a 70.3 percent catch rate with 48.2 receiving yards per game since first seeing his offensive snap share peak above 50 percent in Week 8. Targets will be more sparse…read more

Big day against Bucs secondary
Gage caught eight of 10 targets for 76 yards during Sunday's 35-22 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: The second-year wideout has been establishing himself as a deep-league consideration of late, accumulating 5.3 catches and 47.3 yards per game since Week 8 after managing fewer than one reception and 6.3 yards per game over his first seven appearances of the year. Gage's 76-yard day established a new career best for the former LSU Tiger, but it'd be surprising if he were able to produce a comparable or better output in his Thanksgiving Night matchup against New Orleans' top-12 pass defense on a…read more

Moderately involved in Week 11 win
Gage caught two of four targets for 32 receiving yards during Sunday's 29-3 win against the Panthers.
Analysis: Between the trade of Mohamed Sanu to New England and Sunday's matchup against Carolina, Gage had seen his offensive snap count increase from no higher than 22 percent between Weeks 1 through 7, to percentages of 57 and 62 during Atlanta's Week 8 and 10 losses to the Seahawks and Saints. While he's averaged a much-improved 37.7 receiving yards per game over his past three outings, Gage remains in search of his first career touchdown heading into a matchup against a Buccaneers pass defense that…read more

Makes impact in Week 10 win
Gage compiled 23 receiving yards on four catches during Sunday's 26-9 win against New Orleans.
Analysis: Gage's five targets trailed only Julio Jones' nine, as the second-year wideout tied Austin Hooper (knee) with a team-high four catches during Atlanta's upset triumph over the rival Saints. Hooper's status remains uncertain for Week 11, meaning Gage may benefit from increased involvement in the passing game with the Falcons going up against a Carolina defense that allowed zero passing touchdowns Sunday against Green Bay, while permitting only one Packers player -- Davante Adams -- to exceed 60…read more
