Rob Gronkowski said after the New England Patriots’ Week 3 win that the bye week is a good time to “let your muscles chill.”
Apparently, Gronk didn’t take his own advice.
The Patriots tight end is well-rested and eager to get back on the field Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. But Gronkowski has had some downtime, so he teamed up with Bleacher Report to film a segment of “Uninterrupted,” in which professional athletes directly address their fans.
Not surprisingly, Gronk’s cameo was awesome. First of all, he introduced himself as “Robbie G,” which apparently is a thing.
@robbyg_7 yep by me when I was a kid!! Haha!

He then revealed he had just come from a workout — “to get the muscles strong,” of course — and went on to discuss how fired up he was to face the Cowboys.
“We’ve got the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday in Dallas,” Gronk Robbie G said. “Couldn’t be more exciting than that. Super pumped to go into that stadium and rock it out.”
It’s clear the 26-year-old has a pretty short list of priorities: Playing football, working out and having fun. At the moment, he seems to be excelling at all three.
