Rob Gronkowski’s fantasy season is done. The Patriots could get him back if they advance deep into the playoffs, but the fantasy world will move on without him until 2017. Everyone in the New England passing game will be affected by his absence, so let’s review them all, in descending order of importance.
Martellus Bennett steps up as the team’s No. 1 tight end. He can't do everything Gronk can, but the Patriots aren't going to scale back the playbook. Gronk mostly made Bennett fantasy irrelevant, but he does have three 100-yard games this season, all of which came when Gronk was out or limited by injury.
