Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper (knee) will not play Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, head coach Dan Quinn said.
Hooper will miss a second consecutive game, but Quinn said he has a chance to get back out on the practice field this week. If so, that would tentatively put him on track for a Week 13 return. Luke Stocker and Jaeden Graham combined for 2 targets in Week 11 with Hooper sidelined.
The Bucs are allowing the second-most FanDuel points per game to tight ends this season (14.7).
