Report: Rob Gronkowski dealt with Achilles, back injuries during 2018

First, in Week 5, he was dealing with Achilles tendonitis, sources said, an ailment officially listed as an ankle that zapped some of his explosiveness. A back injury then came in Week 7.

Sources said he he had a bulging disc in his back that further worked to slow Gronkowski down. It took him more than a month to show signs of recovery and in Week 15 he was finally off the report, only to return for Week 16.

A 8/105 2 TD beasting game from Gronk would make this offense scary.

If he’s really truly healthy then it’s a complete game changer. I think more importantly is that he’s going into this game knowing it’s his last so he’s going to go all out and not hold anything back like he obviously was during much of the season.

It would be a guarantee win too.

Think this is going to be his best game of the year. Be interesting to see if they try putting Talib on him. Just makes another weapon sonewhere else on the field.

Super Gronk!

Who does that leave to cover Edelman, hogan, Dorsett and Patterson?
Plus Talib isn’t big enough to handle Gronk. Free release or poor jam, choose your poison.

I’m not so sure it’s his last.

Report: Patriots feel TB12 Method was linked to Rob Gronkowski's injuries

New England wondered if Gronkowski’s season, which included injuries to his Achilles and back, according to NFL Media, would have gone differently if the tight end abided by the team’s workout program and philosophy.

I’ve been saying this. TEs need weight training.

Gronk is the X factor!! Hoping for a vintage performance..10 catches 160 yards, two TD's!!!

It's the reoccurring back injury that worries me. We don't know what he goes through on a weekly basis.

This could be huge.

Yep. He did a good job on Jimmy Graham all those years ago, but Gronk is a whole other kettle of fish.

Even Talib on Edelman works for us. If he's what he was when he was with us, he's probably best suited to cover Hogan...but I could be wrong.

I agree in a vacuum but I think part of the issue is that after getting so beat up on sunday Gronk doesn’t feel that he can take the physical punishment of powerlifting during the subsequent week.

I think we’re going a little far if we’re asking who’s gonna cover patterson dorsett or Hogan lol. Not like they’ve burned every suspect matchup all year. Patterson is barely a receiver ha

I think this may be more referring to the offseason

Weight and strength training makes it easier to take the punishment. That’s the real point.

No. If they put a corner on gronk they don’t have corners who can cover those guys and as we have seen Brady will find them.

Gronk is my Super Bowl MVP pick.

Catches some balls and throws a bunch of Rams out of the club in the running game

 

[Jangles]

Nothing would make me happier than one final game by Gronk in prime form ending in a super bowl win

A few more years of it would make me happier.
