Patriots-Buccaneers injury report: Rob Gronkowski doubtful, J.C. Jackson questionable for Sunday night

The Patriots added cornerback J.C. Jackson to their final injury report Friday, listing him as questionable with a new knee injury.

Jackson is one of eight Patriots deemed questionable, including starting right tackle Trent Brown, safety Kyle Dugger and linebackers Kyle Van Noy and Josh Uche. Jackson met with the media for regularly scheduled interviews this week, as did offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn and linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley, historically a good sign they will play. Wynn and Bentley are also listed as questionable.

In Tampa Bay, tight end Rob Gronkowski was officially listed as doubtful, while edge rusher Jason Pierre-Paul is questionable. Bucs coach Bruce Arians said earlier Friday that both will be game-time decisions.

Both teams’ complete practice reports are below.
