MIAMI — Rob Gronkowski left the tight end position in good hands.
For years Gronkowski was the best tight end in the game. He made the biggest play of Super Bowl LIII last year, setting up a New England Patriots touchdown, and retired a couple months later.
It’s probably not a coincidence that the two best tight ends in the game are facing off in Super Bowl LIV. The San Francisco 49ers have George Kittle, the 2019 AP first-team All-Pro tight end, and the Kansas City Chiefs have Travis Kelce, who was All-Pro in 2016 and 2018.
