It’s too soon to count out Rob Gronkowski

This might seem like the wrong time to say this, considering Rob Gronkowski is coming off what might have been his worst performance in nine seasons as a Patriot.

I say there isn’t a better time to say this.

Don’t give up on Gronk.

Not yet, not now, and not without a few more shots at redemption for the most likable superstar they have ever had.

You know, and I know too, that it doesn’t look good. I’m not pretending that it does. The circumstantial evidence is not on my side. The most physically dominating tight end ever to play has sometimes looked like a shell casing of his former self, even though he is not yet 30 years old.
