Rob Gronkowski’s concussions admission should alarm NFL

Rob Gronkowski has enjoyed messing with the emotions of New England Patriots fans since he unexpectedly decided to hang up his cleats and call it a career last March. Whether it’s posting cryptic tweets with the eyeballs emoji, teasing major announcements in the future, or joking around that he’ll return to the team in Week 14 of this season, Gronk seems to love the chaos he can so easily create in this restless, rabid fanbase.

But on Thursday, CBS News aired an interview with Gronkowski in which the retired tight end told anchor Reena Ninan all about what it’s like to play professional football, per CBS Sports’ Patrik Walker.
