Hub Arkush: Party time: Rob Gronkowski clears concussion protocol

TAG TYPE: iFrame

But the other side of that story has been, with all of the focus on concussion protocol right now, there is no way an independent neurologist was going to clear the All-Pro tight end unless all of Gronkowski's symptoms were in fact gone.

So imagine mine and it seems half or more of NFL enthusiasts' relief when it was announced early Thursday afternoon that Rob Gronkowski had been cleared to play in Super Bowl LII and that he would be allowed to meet the media for the first time at 4:15.

Finally, the party could begin.
