Even the most casual sports fan probably knows that the New England Patriots are in sore need of a tight end these days. One of the greatest to ever play the position, Rob Gronkowski, called it a career last month after just nine short but incredible years. The Patriots now are tasked with the unenviable job of finding someone who can try and fill Gronk’s gigantic shoes at tight end.
One of Gronkowski’s closest friends on the team, Julian Edelman, took it upon himself on Wednesday to do a little recruiting. Looking in a rather unexpected place, Edelman posted a photoshopped image on Twitter of college basketball breakout star Zion Williamson sandwiched between Robert and Jonathan Kraft, the owner/operators of the team.
