Following another injury-plagued season, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is confident he will be ready to roll in 2017.
Gronk said in an interview with ESPN's Cari Champion that there is "no doubt" he'll be ready to play when the 2017 campaign commences.
He also declared his desire to continue playing as long as he can despite suffering through myriad injuries in recent years: "I'm not really sure. I still love playing the game and, as of right now, I want to play as long as I can possibly play. My mindset is to keep on going."
The four-time Pro Bowler played in only eight games last season due to back, hamstring and lung ailments.
