Rob Gronkowski

There will probably never be another tight end who will be able to replicate what Rob Gronkowski was able to do on the field.

Drafted by the Patriots in 2010, Gronkowski altered the position and changed the game for tight ends. To go along with Gronk’s 7,861 career receiving yards, his 79 career receiving touchdowns is the most by any player in Patriots franchise history.

Gronk helped the Patriots win three Super Bowls and is a member of the NFL 100 All-Time Team. Gronk is by far one of the most dominant players in NFL history, and arguably the greatest tight end to ever play the game as well.
