The first four weeks of Rob Gronkowski’s 2016 season have been hindered due to a nagging hamstring injury, but Gronk is hoping that things ramp up for Week 5.
The Patriots’ star tight end has been doing a lot of blocking and significantly less pass-catching so far, and the star tight end is ready for that to change on Sunday.

It is important to note that Gronkowski will, for the first time all year, have Tom Brady throwing to him on Sunday, so that could be a big help as well. However, there is a fair bit of speculation that Gronkowski simply isn’t as healthy as he needs to be. If he continues to struggle with Brady under center and not be more of a focal point, the scrutiny will really begin.
