Although the New England Patriots [-3] continue to be listed as the Super Bowl point spread favorites over the New York Giants [+3] by a field goal, their second most important player hasn’t practiced at all since the AFC Championship game almost two weeks ago.
Despite being seen walking around without a boot, Pats tight end Rob Gronkowski missed yet another practice session on Wednesday due to his high ankle sprain. According to Bill Belichick, The Gronk’s left ankle continues to make progress and he is expected to play on Sunday’s Super Bowl XLVI.
