ATLANTA -- New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski’s mother, Diane, said she liked how quarterback Tom Brady always says hello to his mother after his television interviews. She has been hoping for a shout-out of her own.
It didn’t take long for her son to deliver it.
After hearing about his mother’s interview on the "Today" show earlier in the day, Gronkowski began his Thursday media session at Super Bowl LIII with a lighthearted touch.
“Hi, Mom!” he said with a smile.
Then he expounded on his thoughts about how much she has meant to him.
