FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- It's playoff time and tight end Rob Gronkowski said there is "no room for excuses" come Sunday when the New England Patriots host the Los Angeles Chargers in an AFC divisional round game.
Gronkowski has been banged up all year dealing with ankle and back injuries. His numbers reflect that. He tied a career-low with three touchdown receptions in 13 games and finished with a pedestrian 47 catches for 682 yards. It wasn't up to his usual, healthy, standards.
