Legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski believes the Las Vegas Raiders' Brock Bowers has the potential to be truly special.
Gronkowski said Tuesday on Up & Adams the rookie is "on track to be better than myself" as a pass-catcher:
Gronk was arguably the most dominant tight end in NFL history. He had 92 touchdown receptions in 143 appearances and averaged 58.9 yards per game.
Injuries didn't afford him a lot of longevity and he struggled to stay healthy even in his prime. But the 6'6", 265-pounder was a matchup nightmare for defenders because he was too strong for cornerbacks and too quick for linebackers.
