Rob Gronkowski thinks Tom Brady will play all 16 games this year (Video)

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski had some candid things to say about Tom Brady’s suspension process.

Thursday was a big day for New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. He was named the cover athlete of Madden 17 and had a special episode of SportsCenter dedicated to him.

After Gronkowski talked about being the cover athlete and what he has been up to after the season ended, he was asked about the future of Tom Brady, who is appealing his four-game suspension to start the season.

Gronkowski didn’t give any vague answers and was pretty candid in his response about how he believes things will go. Gronkowski said live on the air that he believes that Brady will end up playing in all 16 games this season.

He didn’t stop there either. He also referred to the suspension process as “stupid” for going on this long.

There are plenty of people that agree with Gronk and the fact that this story between the league and Brady is still dragging on is a reminder of just what lengths some will go to in the midst of a power struggle.

However, if Gronk is indeed right, the Patriots’ outlook looks much better with Brady in the fold for the first four games.
