Schefter: Gronk "looks good" to play

[patsinthesnow]

@AdamSchefter
One source this am on Patriots' TE Rob Gronkowski's availability for tonight's game: "It looks good." Scott Chandler also expected to play.

Feel much better about this game if Tom has Gronk & Danny.

One more layer of credibility, I guess.

I was watching friday night lights on tv this morning. Boobie Miles walked onto the sideline and the opposing coaches said "he's not going to play" Just a decoy they thought. Boobie says 'Ya'll want to win, put Boobie in!" They put Boobie in...two plays later he tears his knee....

 

[RayClay]

Also, ESPNs Dianna Russini says Gronk will definitely play, but she also says 11 of the 12 balls being used weigh over 10 pounds and that Khloe Kardashian is a beeyotch, so I'll take that report with a grain of salt.

I love schefter but he also said early in the week that gronk most like is not going to be ready this week as well.

Patriots Rob Gronkowski will play in tonight's game against the Texans How much? Not sure, but will be active per sources close to Gronk

Despite who she works for she's been a reasonable source over time.

LOL, I got an email asking me to renew my ESPN Insider this morning. Replying to that was fun (and no, I'm not renewing )

No idea, but when Schefter from that network weighs in, I think we've reached the top of the credibility heap there. I already dissed Volin by saying I needed a blog source [pats pulpit] to chime in because i didn't find him credible.

Still won't believe it til Reiss says it.

hoping gronk throws watt out of the club tonight

 

[JayNM]

It's confirmed.

Per source, Rob Gronkowski has decided to try to play tonight.

 

[Foxypats]

If this is true, it will be a huge boost for the team and Tom ! I am a bit surprised though considering all the earlier reports that said he would be out 2-3 weeks at a minimum.

I love Boobie(s).

By the way, she was a local anchor until May 2015 which isn't much time.

More a slap at ESPNs credibility than her. I don't watch them or her to have an opinion other than their reported falsehoods.

I think she was good at tweeting info back then, before joining ESPN. Somewhere in DC I think.

Yes, here, she left for ESPN at the end of May from Washington :

Dianna Russini Signs Off

I forget what she was tweeting about before but I remember her being on the ball.

Regardless, sounds like he's playing so it's all good (though I doubt he plays full time).

 

[Patsrock]

And our favorite writer is whining that he isn't getting credit for reporting it "first". But yet in same tweet he doesn't credit Tom Curran for reporting Hightower out first.




But wait as Mike Loyko points out he wasn't first to report it.

so his dad gave the thumbs up?

You'll have to forgive me, I still haven't recovered from Bonnie Bernstein leaving the air.

Well, they do have to set the line, after all.

@Rodney_Harrison Would you rest Gronk one more week or play him? Looks like he's playing. That knee

I probably would have given him an extra week to rest. #FNIA
