Rob Gronkowski’s offseason of uncertainty ended with the lovable galoot coming back to the Patriots on a reworked, healthier contract, for at least one more run at a championship with Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. Part of Gronk’s existential mulling seems to have come from disillusionment with the Patriots…
Sure, it’s racing horse Gronkowski, named after the Patriots tight end who recently purchased a minority stake in the colt. But still, could you imagine?
Rob Gronkowski, a 6-foot-5 steed who loves to gallop real fast, has purchased a minority stake in Gronkowski, a 6-foot-5 steed who loves to gallop real fast.
However the relationship between Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady stands now, it’s clear that the former still takes issue with the latter’s body coach and business partner Alex Guerrero. Belichick last season reportedly banned Guerrero from the team’s sidelines and revoked his access, and…
Although Rob Gronkowski goes about his everyday life like an ageless high schooler, he’ll be 29 in May and has had a bunch of surgeries to his back and limbs. Add in his marketability and the fact that he’s already sealed up a Hall of Fame spot whenever he walks away from the NFL, and it’s not completely shocking that…
Police were called to Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski’s house this evening for a reported burglary, according to Boston 25 News.
Rob Gronkowski left the field in the first half of today’s AFC Championship after absorbing a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jaguars safety Barry Church.

Steelers safety Mike Mitchell watched how the NFL has responded to three different plays in this past week of football, and he’s not happy about the different punishments that the league has handed down in response or the arcane reasoning behind those punishments.
Rob Gronkowski, a palooka with a new mean streak, somehow avoided an ejection after he crushed Bills cornerback Tre’Davious White well after the play was over. (White had to leave the game and be evaluated for a concussion.)
Rob Gronkowski apparently forgot what sport he was playing late in New England’s game against Buffalo. After an interception from Tre’Davious White, Gronkowski ran up and, for no particular reason, decided to plow his elbow into the back of White’s helmet while the defender was still on the ground. He got a personal…
Right after Brandin Cooks caught a five-yard touchdown pass to give the Patriots a 17-point lead over the Dolphins Sunday, he hopped on Rob Gronkowski’s back and rode his teammate like he was an affable stallion. When Gronk was asked about the funny celebration after the game, he did a bad job of pretending it was…
It was hella dope news and bummer news for Rob Gronkowski today. First, the big lunk of a New England Patriot hit a very personal milestone by catching his 69th career receiving touchdown on a play that the Saints’ defense scarcely could have made any easier.
Dustin Pedroia, Anthony Mackie, Bill Burr, and improvisational quarter keg Rob Gronkowski showed up at a roast for David Ortiz yesterday. Gronk’s material was clearly prewritten; Pedroia’s was supposedly not. One was clearly funnier than the other.
Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski, a man perfectly engineered to survive a frat party balcony collapse, is at the White House today with his Patriots teammates so that they can be honored for their Super Bowl victory. Gronk, perhaps having been set free to wander the halls, crashed White House press secretary Sean…
Of all the celebrity cameos in professional wrestling, football players work the best, not least because they look the part. Their physiques often match up to the guys in the ring, and so when they get involved it doesn’t look quite as silly as, say, Jon Stewart helping Seth Rollins retain the world championship.
A few of the Patriots showed up with their Lombardi Trophy for Red Sox opening day, and overactive galoot Rob Gronkowski had fun with quarterback Tom Brady by nabbing his recently recovered Super Bowl jersey.
Rob Gronkowski turned up at tonight’s Wrestlemania in Orlando in support of buddy Mojo Rawley to help bust up some bad guys en route to Rawley’s win in the Andre the Giant memorial battle royal.
Rob Gronkowski is, for whatever reason, on Fox’s Daytona 500 coverage today, and he’s doing roughly what you’d expect him to be doing. Here he’s talking to a young woman identified as a “Monster girl,” and not quite getting the answer he was going for.
