Gronkowski joins FOX Sports as NFL analyst

The former New England Patriots tight end will put on a headset instead of a
helmet as he joins the FOX Sports roster as an NFL analyst.

"Gronk" will make his on-air debut Thursday night when he joins Terry
Bradshaw, Michael Strahan and Tony Gonzalez on the network's pregame show.
It's perfect timing in that the New York Giants will be playing at the
Patriots.

"We're thrilled Rob chose FOX Sports for the next phase of his football life,"
executive producer Brad Zager said in a statement. "He is one of the most
popular players to ever play the game and also one of the best tight ends in
NFL history. His passion for the game and larger-than-life personality make
him a perfect fit for FOX Sports."

A five-time Pro Bowler, four-time first-team All-Pro and three-time Super Bowl
champ with the Patriots, Gronkowski caught 521 passes for 7,861 yards and 79
touchdowns during his nine-year career from 2010-18.

"I'm extremely excited to be joining FOX Sports," Gronkowski said in a
release. "For the past 25 years, they've offered viewers top-notch NFL
programming from the field to the booth to the studio. Their deep talent
roster is unmatched, which was important for me as I embark on this new
chapter in my life because I'll be able to learn from the best in the
business."
