Ankle injury to Rob Gronkowski would keep him out a regular season game

Ankle injury to Rob Gronkowski would keep him out a regular season game:  I don't apperceive if you've heard, but Patriots bound end Rob Gronkowski is ambidextrous with an abate abrasion advanced of Super Bowl XLVI. Gronk's agent, Drew Rosenhaus talked a little bit about it on NBC SportsTalk yesterday. Via Pro Football Talk:

Rosenhaus was accurate to point out that he didn't wish to get himself in agitation with Patriots drillmaster Bill Belichick. But Rosenhaus aswell conceded that the abrasion is abundantly bad that, if it wasn't the Super Bowl, Gronkowski absolutely wouldn't be playing.

But it is the Super Bowl, and at this point, I anticipate anybody just assumes that we'll see Gronkowski arena on Sunday. He did yield allotment in convenance on Thursday for the aboriginal time back the AFC Championship game, and arch drillmaster Bill Belichick appear no setbacks.

But if there's aught adventitious that he'd play in a approved division game, one has to admiration how abominably Gronkowski will be hobbled during the game. Can he even be a factor?

And is there a achievability that he will not be a factor, the Patriots apperceive he will not be a factor, and they're traveling through the deception just so the Giants accept to adapt for him anyway? I'm not usually the cabal approach type, but it is Bill Belichick and it is the Super Bowl, so I'm not cardinal out anything.

Rob Gronkowski ability not even exist. He ability just be a alternation of CGI highlights created by Jerry Bruckheimer and fed to ESPN to argue the Giants that they had to adapt for a all-powerful bound end.

Personally, I'm acquisitive for the adverse book ‒ that Gronkowski, with the account of a phenomenon or a needle, can go out there on Sunday and accomplish like he's 100%. Unless you're a Giants fan, we all lose with a bound Gronk.
