On his Twitter account Thursday, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski shared with the world a “Throwback Thursday” photograph of himself in middle school wearing rather large shoes for his age. It was an early sign of things to come for Gronk as even then his large presence was felt.

Wow how did I ever walk in those sneakers! That's insane #TBT
