I would love to know why Dr. Andrews or Dr. Jupiter won't clear Gronkowski. On the surface it certainly doesn't seem to make much sense but I am sure they have their reasons. The question is what needs to happen before they can clear him? Given the amount of time that has passed since his last surgery, the lack of infection, and the fact that he has been practicing routinely then my guess is that there is a bigger problem. I'm not expecting him back anytime soon.
Don't know the medical facts, not a doctor, haven't seen the x-rays, but I'd say the reason Dr. Andrews hasn't cleared Gronk to play is because he doesn't have to. Makes no difference to him if Gronk plays or doesn't so if Gronk doesn't want to play (or members of his team don't want him to play) then Gronk doesn't play. I'm guessing that when Team Gronk says it's time to play, Andrews will clear him.
