Bucs' Rob Gronkowski explains how he 'drizzles' like syrup when making plays
TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski has a unique (and rather hilarious) analogy for the touchdown catch he made Sunday on the back-shoulder fade that has become the signature play between him and quarterback Tom Brady in their 11 seasons together -- one that they’ve connected on in each of the past two games.
"It’s like a saying my mom used to say: ‘It must be maple syrup because butter don't drizzle like that,’” Gronkowski said Wednesday when asked about the throw.
What on earth does his mother mean, you ask?
