New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has cleared concussion protocol and will play against the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 52.
The former Arizona Wildcat’s status was in doubt after he exited in the first half of the AFC Championship Game after suffering a major hit to the head from Jacksonville Jaguars safety Barry Church.
But, alas, Tom Brady’s No. 1 target will be good to go in Sunday’s big game. Gronkowski fully practiced Thursday after being limited Wednesday.
“Officially got the word today that I was cleared,” he told the media Thursday.
