Now let’s tread lightly here and use our detective skills before getting carried away.

Gronkowski was at Barstool Sports’ headquarters in New York City on Monday, which likely means he went through their carwash of interviews, including “Pardon My Take,” the brand’s most popular podcast.

Pardon My Take has been known to have guests, such as Blake Griffin, simply tweet out the eyeball emoji to watch Twitter hilariously explode. It’s a brilliant bit that works just about every time. If this is the case, it certainly was effective once again.

Check out some of the responses.

Please share with the rest of the class, Rob. https://t.co/AmBUbPt33J

There’s a 10% chance this means Gronk is coming back but also a 10% chance Gronk is the new spokesperson for a company that sells edible Tide pods https://t.co/BxWgRw61e5

If you need more clues that Gronkowski likely will make an appearance on “Pardon My Take” this week, the show’s Twitter account added fuel to the fire.
