Resting Gronk on the Field Last Sunday

[NEhomer]

It's the Jets...you don't need him but he is active in case you did.
He's not taking a full three weeks off the field before the playoffs.
He gets to run his routes.
He blocks.
His chance of injury goes markedly down when he's not catching passes.
They still gotta cover him.
0 targets.
0 catches.
Healthy to go in two weeks.

Brilliant.

But Gronk lost 2.5 mill by being 11 catches short of his bonus.

 

[NEhomer]

His suspension is what cost him that.

All those dropped passes by Dorsett cost him that, TB should have been targeting Gronk.

I believe that Gronk was named All-Pro. If he was, all of his incentives kick in. They figured that he'd need to make all of them to be named an All-Pro. So getting all of the receptions was moot.

All-Pro rassler?

Exactly. There if we needed him.

He got 1000 yds and he'll likely be all-pro. He'll get paid.

I don't think Gronk's all that concerned with additional wealth at this point.
