It’s been a rough season for New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. He’s played in just seven games and missed three of the past four with injuries. Furthermore, Gronk hasn’t caught a touchdown since Week 1.
Until now.
Gronkowski hauled in a gorgeous 34-yard strike in the first quarter of Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, tying it up at 7-7.
Gronk has returned to his natural habitat. https://t.co/QsHH3vYiA6

Twitter exploded with fans touting the return of Gronk, who is finally “back.”

What’s dumber? People saying Gronk is done or the Jets giving the best Qb of all time another shot on 3rd down? My god that was stupid

Gronk comebacks and scores right away. Mannnn when he’s healthy he’s the best TE ever.

Gronk is like the NFL version of the McRibb. He's only available for limited times each year. But when he's here, he's special.
