Derby and Clay Harbor, all of which certainly have the skills to be productive and can contribute if the veteran tight end still isn&#8217;t ready for action by this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Now the only question is whether he&#8217;ll\u00a0play\u00a0Sunday night, or if fans will have to wait until Week 2 (or longer) before they see him out there. \u00a0Either way it&#8217;s not a good situation and you can bet that Belichick isn&#8217;t pleased since\u00a0Cardinals coach Bruce Arians now has\u00a0time to make some adjustments with Gronkowski&#8217;s status potentially in doubt.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully that won&#8217;t be the case as according to Howe, Gronkowski should be ready to go.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Right now, Rob Gronkowski (hamstring) is expected to play Sunday against the Cardinals barring an unexpected setback, per 2 sources.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash;
