Gronk is now a FOX NFL analyst

Ahh the Witten route

How long is the contract?

My guess is the Gronk is there in a guest role.

Can't wait until he is asked by the Fox crew on TV if he would ever go back and play and Gronk dances around the question with another ambigous answer.

Oh well. Fix the line pound the rock hard

play D

Somehow I think Gronk will be more entertaining...

As long as it’s not the cry baby or that miserable Fouts guy

Will most certainly be one of the sideline reporters for Fox when Dallas visits New England next month. Will be must see TV

When was the last time a HOF TE went into broadcasting then came back to play again?

And that HOF TE didn't spend a lot of time of the pine like say our Gronk no injury gaps in Witten's career.

Good for him, now finally we know he will not be coming back and we can move on !

Yep he’s not suiting up again

Rather than going TE I was thinking of Cutler lol. He never so much as took a seat on air

Well never say never but I dont see gronk coming back anytime soon. He didn't completely rule it out but he said it will depend on how he feels late in the year.

Yep, just saw this:

Rob Gronkowski to serve as football analyst for FOX

OT - OMG! I can't believe I actually got to start a legit thread! I tried starting what I thought were funny threads in the past, but they got canned immediately

I bet he's very knowledgeable and will be a fine analyst.

I agree, one can be smart and goofy at the same time, and Gronk picked up the Pats offense faster than any rookie I can think of, I've always thought that his football smarts were through the roof. I bet he will be able to combine excitability for the game with knowledge in a similar way that Tony Romo has (I'm not saying he will as good, that remains to be seen).

I think that was evident from all of the weight he has lost, he looks more like a QB than a TE now.

Good gig for him to take. He should not be playing football based off what he has mentioned regarding all of his concussions.

BINGO

What happened to all the Hollywood movie offers and Big Time Wrestling career?

Mark Wahlberg was supposed to hook Gronk up in show business.

OT - moving on up in the world. Instead of my first-ever new thread getting canned, it got redirected! Yay me! At least I got to live the dream for a few minutes
