According to multiple reports, it sounds like the team may have a double shot of Gronk in their offense, with tight end Dan Gronkowski, the brother of Patriots tight end Rob Gronkwoski, reportedly set to join New England.
Gronkowski was cut by the Broncos over the weekend, and his brother Chris tweeted a few minutes ago a congratulations to Dan about joining New England.
