New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is 6-foot-6 and plays at around 275 pounds. He's a three-time first-team Associated Press All-Pro pick who, at 26, is already being discussed as the best player the NFL has ever seen at the position.
But according to Denver Broncos' linebacker Brandon Marshall, Gronkowski isn't putting up the numbers he does because he's good and a matchup nightmare, too big for most cornerbacks and safeties and too quick for most linebackers.
Nope, It's because he likes to get a little handsy.
As a guest on ProFootballTalk's "PFT Live" on Monday, Marshall was asked what makes it so tough to cover Gronkowski.
